38758240 divided by 172 
Our goal is to divide 38758240 by 172.

Going ahead to step 1:
172 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 172

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 38 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 387 / 172

Step 3:
172 goes into 387 2 times with a remainder of 43.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 344 from 387 leaves us with 43.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 435 / 172

Advancing to step 4:
172 can be fit into 435 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 91.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 91 after subtracting 344 from 435.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 91 and continue with: 918 / 172

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 918 by 172, we get 5 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 225.0
Subtracting 860 from 918 leaves us with 58.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 582 / 172

Step 6:
172 goes into 582 3 times with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2253.0
If we take 516 away from 582, we end up with 66.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 66, then carry on: 664 / 172

Going ahead to step 7:
664 divided by 172 is 3 with a remainder of 148.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22533.0
If we subtract 516 from 664, we get 148.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 148 and repeat the process: 1480 / 172

Let's proceed to step 8:
172 goes into 1480 8 times with a remainder of 104.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 225338.0
Deduct 1376 from 1480 and we're left with 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 1040 by 172, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 225338.6
Subtract 1032 from 1040 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 172, we get 0 with a remainder of 80.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 225338.6
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 0 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
800 divided by 172 is 4 with a remainder of 112.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 225338.604
If we take 688 away from 800, we end up with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 1120 by 172, we get 6 and a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 225338.6046
Deduct 1032 from 1120 and we're left with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 880 by 172, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 225338.60465
Deduct 860 from 880 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
172 goes into 200 1 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 225338.604651
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 172 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
The number 172 fits into 280 1 times, leaving a remainder of 108.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 225338.6046511
If we subtract 172 from 280, we get 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 225338.6046511 with a balance of 1.08e-06.
