We divide 537172 by 12
We want to divide 537172 by 12.

Moving on to step 1:
5 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 12

Let's proceed to step 2:
12 goes into 53 4 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 48 from 53 to get 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 12

Moving on to step 3:
57 divided by 12 is 4 with a remainder of 9.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we subtract 48 from 57, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 91 / 12

On to step 4:
When dividing 91 by 12, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 447.0
If we subtract 84 from 91, we get 7.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 77 / 12

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 77 by 12, we get 6 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4476.0
Deduct 72 from 77 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 12

Advancing to step 6:
The number 12 fits into 52 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 44764.0
If we take 48 away from 52, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 12 fits into 40 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44764.3
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
40 divided by 12 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44764.33
Subtract 36 from 40 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 44764.33 with a balance of 0.004.
