We're dividing 771981 by 37 
We want to divide 771981 by 37.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 37, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 77 / 37

Step 2:
37 goes into 77 2 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 74 from 77, we get 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 37

Let's proceed to step 3:
37 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we subtract 0 from 31, we get 31.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 319 / 37

Advancing to step 4:
37 can be fit into 319 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 208.0
Subtracting 296 from 319 leaves us with 23.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 238 / 37

Step 5:
The number 37 fits into 238 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2086.0
If we subtract 222 from 238, we get 16.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 161 / 37

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 161 by 37, we get 4 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20864.0
Subtracting 148 from 161 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
37 can be fit into 130 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20864.3
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 111 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
190 divided by 37 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20864.35
Subtracting 185 from 190 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 37 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 20864.351
If we subtract 37 from 50, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
37 goes into 130 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20864.3513
Subtracting 111 from 130 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
190 divided by 37 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20864.35135
Subtract 185 from 190 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 50 by 37, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20864.351351
Subtracting 37 from 50 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
37 goes into 130 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20864.3513513
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 111 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 190 by 37, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20864.35135135
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 185 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The final result is 20864.35135135 with a remainder of 5e-09.
