We're dividing 4253258 by 438 
Our goal is to divide 4253258 by 438.

Let's proceed to step 1:
438 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 438

Step 2:
If we divide 42 by 438, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 42, we get 42.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 425 / 438

Advancing to step 3:
The number 438 fits into 425 0 times, leaving a remainder of 425.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 425, we end up with 425.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 425, then repeat: 4253 / 438

Step 4:
The number 438 fits into 4253 9 times, leaving a remainder of 311.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 3942 from 4253 and we're left with 311.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 311 and continue: 3112 / 438

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 3112 by 438, we get 7 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 97.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 3066 from 3112.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 465 / 438

Advancing to step 6:
438 can be fit into 465 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 971.0
If we subtract 438 from 465, we get 27.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 278 / 438

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 278 by 438, we get 0 with a remainder of 278.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9710.0
Subtract 0 from 278 to get 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
438 goes into 2780 6 times with a remainder of 152.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9710.6
Subtracting 2628 from 2780 leaves us with 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 1520 by 438, we get 3 with a remainder of 206.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9710.63
Subtracting 1314 from 1520 leaves us with 206.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
438 can be fit into 2060 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 308.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9710.634
The remainder is 308 after subtracting 1752 from 2060.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3080, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 438 fits into 3080 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9710.6347
If we take 3066 away from 3080, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 12:
140 divided by 438 is 0 with a remainder of 140.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9710.6347
If we take 0 away from 140, we end up with 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 1400 by 438, we get 3 with a remainder of 86.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9710.634703
If we subtract 1314 from 1400, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
438 goes into 860 1 times with a remainder of 422.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9710.6347031
Subtracting 438 from 860 leaves us with 422.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4220, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 438 fits into 4220 9 times, leaving a remainder of 278.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9710.63470319
If we take 3942 away from 4220, we end up with 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9710.63470319 with a remaining 2.78e-07.
