We're dividing 33538573 by 12 
We want to figure out the number of times 33538573 can be divided by 12.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 12, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 33 / 12

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 33 by 12, we get 2 and a remainder of 9.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 24 from 33 and we're left with 9.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 95 / 12

Advancing to step 3:
12 goes into 95 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 84 from 95 leaves us with 11.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 113 / 12

On to step 4:
113 divided by 12 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 279.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 108 from 113.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 12

On to step 5:
12 goes into 58 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2794.0
If we subtract 48 from 58, we get 10.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 105 / 12

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 105 by 12, we get 8 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27948.0
If we take 96 away from 105, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 12

Moving on to step 7:
12 goes into 97 8 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 279488.0
Subtract 96 from 97 to get 1.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 13 / 12

Let's proceed to step 8:
13 divided by 12 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2794881.0
Deduct 12 from 13 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 12 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2794881.0
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 12 fits into 100 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2794881.08
If we subtract 96 from 100, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
12 can be fit into 40 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2794881.083
If we subtract 36 from 40, we 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 12 fits into 40 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2794881.0833
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.

Our division results in 2794881.0833 with a remaining 4e-05.
