Syntax:  DIV src                                         ?       ? ? ? ? ?
 
  Divides an implied destination operand by a specified source operand.
  Both operands are treated as unsigned numbers. If the source (divisor)
  is 16 bits wide, then the implied destination (dividend) is the DX:AX
  register pair. The quotient goes into AX and the remainder into DX.
  If the source is 8 bits wide, the implied destination operand is AX.
  The quotient goes into AL and the remainder into AH.
