We look at the division of 131478 by 37 
We're looking to find how many times 37 goes into 131478.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 37 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 13 / 37

Step 2:
When dividing 13 by 37, we get 0 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 0 from 13.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 131 / 37

On to step 3:
When dividing 131 by 37, we get 3 with a remainder of 20.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 111 away from 131, we end up with 20.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 204 / 37

Step 4:
The number 37 fits into 204 5 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 185 from 204.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 197 / 37

Going ahead to step 5:
37 goes into 197 5 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 355.0
Subtracting 185 from 197 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 128 / 37

Going ahead to step 6:
37 goes into 128 3 times with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3553.0
Subtract 111 from 128 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
37 can be fit into 170 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3553.4
If we take 148 away from 170, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
220 divided by 37 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3553.45
Subtracting 185 from 220 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 350 by 37, we get 9 with a remainder of 17.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3553.459
Subtract 333 from 350 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 170 by 37, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3553.4594
If we take 148 away from 170, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
37 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3553.45945
Subtracting 185 from 220 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
37 can be fit into 350 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3553.459459
Subtracting 333 from 350 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 170 by 37, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3553.4594594
If we subtract 148 from 170, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
220 divided by 37 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3553.45945945
Subtracting 185 from 220 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

The final result is 3553.45945945 with a remainder of 3.5e-08.
