Let's divide 2977548 by 852
We're looking to find how many times 852 goes into 2977548.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 852 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 852

On to step 2:
When dividing 29 by 852, we get 0 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 29 and we're left with 29.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 297 / 852

Step 3:
When dividing 297 by 852, we get 0 with a remainder of 297.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 297, we get 297.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 297, then repeat: 2977 / 852

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 2977 by 852, we get 3 and a remainder of 421.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 2556 away from 2977, we end up with 421.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 421, then carry on: 4215 / 852

On to step 5:
When dividing 4215 by 852, we get 4 with a remainder of 807.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we take 3408 away from 4215, we end up with 807.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 807, then repeat: 8074 / 852

Moving on to step 6:
852 can be fit into 8074 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 406.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 349.0
If we take 7668 away from 8074, we end up with 406.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 406, then repeat: 4068 / 852

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 4068 by 852, we get 4 and a remainder of 660.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3494.0
If we subtract 3408 from 4068, we get 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6600, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 6600 by 852, we get 7 and a remainder of 636.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3494.7
Subtracting 5964 from 6600 leaves us with 636.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 852 fits into 6360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 396.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3494.77
If we subtract 5964 from 6360, we get 396.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3960, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3494.77 with a remaining 0.396.
