We're dividing 542980 by 37 
Let's see how many times 37 fits into 542980.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 37 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 37

Let's proceed to step 2:
37 can be fit into 54 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 37 from 54, we get 17.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 172 / 37

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 172 by 37, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 148 from 172 to get 24.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 249 / 37

Step 4:
249 divided by 37 is 6 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 146.0
Subtract 222 from 249 to get 27.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 278 / 37

Going ahead to step 5:
278 divided by 37 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1467.0
Deduct 259 from 278 and we're left with 19.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 190 / 37

On to step 6:
37 can be fit into 190 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14675.0
Subtracting 185 from 190 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
50 divided by 37 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14675.1
If we take 37 away from 50, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 37 fits into 130 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14675.13
Deduct 111 from 130 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 9:
190 divided by 37 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14675.135
Subtracting 185 from 190 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 50 by 37, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14675.1351
Subtract 37 from 50 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 130 by 37, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14675.13513
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 111 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
37 can be fit into 190 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14675.135135
Subtracting 185 from 190 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 50 by 37, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14675.1351351
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 37 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
37 goes into 130 3 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14675.13513513
If we take 111 away from 130, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14675.13513513 and a remainder of 1.9e-08.
