do it in the right order, matching the endianness.
Just like with ordinary division, you proceed one digit (bit) at a time.
-Each step of the division, division, you take one more digit (bit) of the

+Each step of the division you take one more digit (bit) of the dividend

appropriate multiple of the divisor to subtract to being the remainder
back into range. In binary, this is easy - it has to be either 0 or 1,
and to make the XOR cancel, it's just a copy of bit 32 of the remainder.
