We look at the division of 17978093 by 954 
Let's see how many times 954 fits into 17978093.

Step 1:
When dividing 1 by 954, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 954

Step 2:
The number 954 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 179 / 954

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 179 by 954, we get 0 with a remainder of 179.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 179 to get 179.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 179 and continue with: 1797 / 954

Advancing to step 4:
954 can be fit into 1797 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 843.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 954 from 1797 and we're left with 843.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 843, then carry on: 8438 / 954

On to step 5:
954 can be fit into 8438 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 806.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 7632 away from 8438, we end up with 806.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 806, then repeat: 8060 / 954

Step 6:
If we divide 8060 by 954, we get 8 and a remainder of 428.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188.0
Subtracting 7632 from 8060 leaves us with 428.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 428, then repeat: 4289 / 954

Let's proceed to step 7:
954 can be fit into 4289 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 473.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1884.0
If we subtract 3816 from 4289, we get 473.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 473 and repeat the process: 4733 / 954

Going ahead to step 8:
954 goes into 4733 4 times with a remainder of 917.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18844.0
If we take 3816 away from 4733, we end up with 917.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 954 fits into 9170 9 times, leaving a remainder of 584.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18844.9
If we take 8586 away from 9170, we end up with 584.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5840, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
954 can be fit into 5840 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 116.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18844.96
Deduct 5724 from 5840 and we're left with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 1160 by 954, we get 1 and a remainder of 206.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18844.961
If we take 954 away from 1160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 954 fits into 2060 2 times, leaving a remainder of 152.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18844.9612
Deduct 1908 from 2060 and we're left with 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 1520 by 954, we get 1 with a remainder of 566.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18844.96121
If we take 954 away from 1520, we end up with 566.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 954 fits into 5660 5 times, leaving a remainder of 890.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 18844.961215
The remainder is 890 after subtracting 4770 from 5660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8900, and continue the process.

Step 15:
8900 divided by 954 is 9 with a remainder of 314.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18844.9612159
If we subtract 8586 from 8900, we get 314.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
When dividing 3140 by 954, we get 3 with a remainder of 278.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18844.96121593
If we take 2862 away from 3140, we end up with 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

The final result is 18844.96121593 with a remainder of 2.78e-07.
