We're dividing 170948 by 37 
Our goal is to divide 170948 by 37.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 37, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 37

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 37, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 170 / 37

On to step 3:
37 can be fit into 170 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 148 from 170.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 229 / 37

Step 4:
If we divide 229 by 37, we get 6 and a remainder of 7.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46.0
Subtract 222 from 229 to get 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 37

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 74 by 37, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 462.0
Deduct 74 from 74 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 37

Step 6:
When dividing 8 by 37, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4620.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
37 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4620.2
Deduct 74 from 80 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
60 divided by 37 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4620.21
Subtract 37 from 60 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
230 divided by 37 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4620.216
If we subtract 222 from 230, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 37, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4620.2162
Subtract 74 from 80 to 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 60 by 37, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4620.21621
If we subtract 37 from 60, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
37 goes into 230 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4620.216216
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 222 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
80 divided by 37 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4620.2162162
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 74 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 60 by 37, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4620.21621621
Subtract 37 from 60 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4620.21621621 with a remaining 2.3e-08.
