We look at the division of 254987 by 37 
We want to figure out the number of times 254987 can be divided by 37.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 37 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 37

Let's proceed to step 2:
37 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 254 / 37

Step 3:
The number 37 fits into 254 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 222 from 254, we get 32.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 329 / 37

On to step 4:
37 can be fit into 329 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
Deduct 296 from 329 and we're left with 33.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 338 / 37

Moving on to step 5:
37 goes into 338 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 689.0
If we take 333 away from 338, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 37

Let's proceed to step 6:
37 goes into 57 1 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6891.0
Deduct 37 from 57 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
37 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6891.5
Subtract 185 from 200 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 150 by 37, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6891.54
Subtract 148 from 150 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 20 by 37, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6891.54
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
37 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6891.5405
If we take 185 away from 200, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 150 by 37, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6891.54054
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 148 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 37, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6891.54054
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
200 divided by 37 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6891.5405405
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 185 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 37 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6891.54054054
Subtracting 148 from 150 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6891.54054054 and a remainder of 2e-09.
