We look at the division of 18408537 by 177 
We're looking to find how many times 177 goes into 18408537.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 177 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 177

On to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 177, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 184 / 177

Going ahead to step 3:
184 divided by 177 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 177 from 184, we get 7.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 70 / 177

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 70 by 177, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 70, then repeat: 708 / 177

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 177 fits into 708 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 104.0
Subtract 708 from 708 to get 0.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 5 / 177

Let's proceed to step 6:
5 divided by 177 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1040.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 177

Let's proceed to step 7:
177 goes into 53 0 times with a remainder of 53.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10400.0
If we subtract 0 from 53, we get 53.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 53, then repeat: 537 / 177

Step 8:
If we divide 537 by 177, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 104003.0
If we subtract 531 from 537, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 60 by 177, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 104003.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 10:
177 goes into 600 3 times with a remainder of 69.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 104003.03
Subtract 531 from 600 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 690 by 177, we get 3 with a remainder of 159.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 104003.033
If we subtract 531 from 690, we get 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1590, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 104003.033 with a balance of 0.0159.
