156844 ÷ 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 156844.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 15 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 15, we get 15.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 156 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
38 goes into 156 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 152 from 156 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
48 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 38 from 48, we get 10.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 104 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 104 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 412.0
Subtracting 76 from 104 leaves us with 28.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 284 / 38

Step 6:
284 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4127.0
Subtracting 266 from 284 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 180 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4127.4
If we subtract 152 from 180, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
38 can be fit into 280 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4127.47
If we take 266 away from 280, 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
38 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4127.473
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 114 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 10:
260 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4127.4736
Subtracting 228 from 260 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4127.47368
If we take 304 away from 320, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4127.473684
Deduct 152 from 160 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 80 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4127.4736842
Subtracting 76 from 80 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 38 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4127.47368421
Subtract 38 from 40 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4127.47368421, with a leftover of 2e-09.
