Alternatiive to reduce the number of logic elements in division

Hallo, This division consumes a lot of logic elements which affects the timing. Since the denominator can vary according to the incoming value, I am not able to equate it to a 2**x value which reduces the logic elements.
Any suggestions?

How often/how fast need this division take place? Maybe you could switch to a state machine, which control a counter, a subtraction and a comparator...

So usually a division in hardware is done in several steps (like a division by hand on a sheet of paper: each digit is one step of calculation). Therefore such a division takes several clock cycles.
