We divide 18693443 by 497
We're looking to find how many times 497 goes into 18693443.

Step 1:
The number 497 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 497

Let's proceed to step 2:
497 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we get 18.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 186 / 497

Moving on to step 3:
186 divided by 497 is 0 with a remainder of 186.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 186, we get 186.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 186 and repeat the process: 1869 / 497

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 1869 by 497, we get 3 with a remainder of 378.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 1491 from 1869 to get 378.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 378, then carry on: 3783 / 497

Let's proceed to step 5:
497 goes into 3783 7 times with a remainder of 304.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37.0
The remainder is 304 after subtracting 3479 from 3783.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 304 and continue: 3044 / 497

Going ahead to step 6:
497 goes into 3044 6 times with a remainder of 62.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 376.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 2982 from 3044.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 62 and continue: 624 / 497

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 624 by 497, we get 1 and a remainder of 127.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3761.0
Deduct 497 from 624 and we're left with 127.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 127 and continue: 1273 / 497

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 1273 by 497, we get 2 and a remainder of 279.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 37612.0
Subtract 994 from 1273 to get 279.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 2790 by 497, we get 5 and a remainder of 305.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37612.5
The remainder is 305 after subtracting 2485 from 2790.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3050, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 3050 by 497, we get 6 with a remainder of 68.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37612.56
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 2982 from 3050.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
497 goes into 680 1 times with a remainder of 183.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37612.561
If we take 497 away from 680, we end up with 183.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1830, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 1830 by 497, we get 3 and a remainder of 339.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37612.5613
Deduct 1491 from 1830 and we're left with 339.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 3390 by 497, we get 6 and a remainder of 408.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37612.56136
If we subtract 2982 from 3390, we get 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 4080 by 497, we get 8 with a remainder of 104.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37612.561368
Subtract 3976 from 4080 to get 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
The number 497 fits into 1040 2 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37612.5613682
Subtract 994 from 1040 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
460 divided by 497 is 0 with a remainder of 460.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37612.5613682
Deduct 0 from 460 and we're left with 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4600, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 37612.5613682, and the remainder is 4.6e-07.
