We look at the division of 5585940 by 437 
We want to figure out the number of times 5585940 can be divided by 437.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 437, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 437

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 55 by 437, we get 0 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 55 to get 55.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 55, then carry on: 558 / 437

On to step 3:
If we divide 558 by 437, we get 1 and a remainder of 121.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 437 from 558, we get 121.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 121, then repeat: 1215 / 437

On to step 4:
The number 437 fits into 1215 2 times, leaving a remainder of 341.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 341 after subtracting 874 from 1215.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 341 and repeat the process: 3419 / 437

Advancing to step 5:
3419 divided by 437 is 7 with a remainder of 360.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 127.0
The remainder is 360 after subtracting 3059 from 3419.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 360 and continue: 3604 / 437

Let's proceed to step 6:
437 can be fit into 3604 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 108.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1278.0
If we subtract 3496 from 3604, we get 108.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 108 and continue with: 1080 / 437

Going ahead to step 7:
437 can be fit into 1080 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 206.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12782.0
Deduct 874 from 1080 and we're left with 206.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
437 can be fit into 2060 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 312.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12782.4
Subtract 1748 from 2060 to get 312.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
3120 divided by 437 is 7 with a remainder of 61.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12782.47
If we subtract 3059 from 3120, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 610 by 437, we get 1 and a remainder of 173.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12782.471
Subtracting 437 from 610 leaves us with 173.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1730, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
437 goes into 1730 3 times with a remainder of 419.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12782.4713
Subtract 1311 from 1730 to get 419.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 437 fits into 4190 9 times, leaving a remainder of 257.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12782.47139
Deduct 3933 from 4190 and we're left with 257.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2570, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 2570 by 437, we get 5 with a remainder of 385.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12782.471395
Subtract 2185 from 2570 to get 385.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3850, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 3850 by 437, we get 8 and a remainder of 354.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12782.4713958
Subtract 3496 from 3850 to get 354.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3540, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 437 fits into 3540 8 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12782.47139588
Subtracting 3496 from 3540 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12782.47139588 with a remaining 4.4e-08.
