           255 r19       1. DIVIDE  (How many times will 33 fit into 84?)
        +-------         2. MULTIPLY (2 x 33 = 66)
     33 | 8434           3. SUBTRACT (84 - 66 = 18)
          66             4. BRING DOWN ( 3 )
         -----           5. DIVIDE (How many times will 33 fit into 183?)
          183            6. MULTIPLY (5 x 33 = 165)
          165            7. SUBTRACT (183-165=18)
          -----          8. BRING DOWN ( 4 )
           184           9. DIVIDE (How many times will 33 fit into 184?)
           165          10. MULTIPLY (5 x 33 = 165)
          -----         11. SUBTRACT(184-165=19)
