Lets say I am dividing

2592 / 324 = 8

Practically I must guess that 324 goes 8 times in 2592 without reminder. For example, first I try with 7 ( 7*324 = 2268, reminder 324, so 7 is wrong, so I try with 8 and 8 is correct)

Is there anyway to do dividing without guessing( trying ), like multiplication ( all mechanically, digit by digit )?
