Let's divide 539408 by 37
Our goal is to divide 539408 by 37.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 37, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 53 / 37

Step 2:
37 can be fit into 53 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 37 from 53 to get 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 37

Going ahead to step 3:
37 goes into 169 4 times with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 148 away from 169, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 37

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 214 by 37, we get 5 with a remainder of 29.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145.0
Subtracting 185 from 214 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 290 / 37

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 290 by 37, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1457.0
Subtracting 259 from 290 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 318 / 37

Moving on to step 6:
37 can be fit into 318 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14578.0
Deduct 296 from 318 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 37, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14578.5
Subtracting 185 from 220 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
350 divided by 37 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14578.59
If we take 333 away from 350, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
37 can be fit into 170 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14578.594
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 148 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 220 by 37, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14578.5945
Subtracting 185 from 220 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
37 goes into 350 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14578.59459
If we subtract 333 from 350, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 37 fits into 170 4 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14578.594594
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 148 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 37 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14578.5945945
Subtract 185 from 220 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 14:
37 goes into 350 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14578.59459459
Subtracting 333 from 350 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14578.59459459 and a remainder of 1.7e-08.
