We look at the division of 987401 by 37 
We're looking to find how many times 37 goes into 987401.

Advancing to step 1:
37 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 37

On to step 2:
The number 37 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 74 from 98 and we're left with 24.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 247 / 37

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 247 by 37, we get 6 and a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 222 from 247 leaves us with 25.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 254 / 37

On to step 4:
254 divided by 37 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 266.0
Subtract 222 from 254 to get 32.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 320 / 37

On to step 5:
When dividing 320 by 37, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2668.0
If we take 296 away from 320, we end up with 24.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 241 / 37

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 241 by 37, we get 6 and a remainder of 19.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26686.0
Subtracting 222 from 241 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.

Moving on to step 7:
37 can be fit into 190 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26686.5
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 50 by 37, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26686.51
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 9:
The number 37 fits into 130 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 26686.513
Deduct 111 from 130 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
190 divided by 37 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26686.5135
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.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 50 by 37, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26686.51351
Deduct 37 from 50 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
37 goes into 130 3 times with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 26686.513513
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 37 fits into 190 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26686.5135135
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.

Step 14:
If we divide 50 by 37, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 26686.51351351
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.

Our division results in 26686.51351351 with a remaining 1.3e-08.
