We divide 38495981 by 156
We want to divide 38495981 by 156.

Moving on to step 1:
156 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 156

Step 2:
156 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 38 to get 38.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 384 / 156

Advancing to step 3:
156 goes into 384 2 times with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 312 from 384 leaves us with 72.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 729 / 156

Step 4:
156 can be fit into 729 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 105.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 624 from 729 leaves us with 105.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 105 and continue with: 1055 / 156

On to step 5:
156 can be fit into 1055 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 119.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 246.0
Deduct 936 from 1055 and we're left with 119.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 119 and repeat the process: 1199 / 156

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 1199 by 156, we get 7 and a remainder of 107.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2467.0
Subtracting 1092 from 1199 leaves us with 107.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 107 and repeat the process: 1078 / 156

On to step 7:
1078 divided by 156 is 6 with a remainder of 142.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24676.0
The remainder is 142 after subtracting 936 from 1078.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 142 and continue with: 1421 / 156

Step 8:
156 goes into 1421 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 246769.0
If we take 1404 away from 1421, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 170 by 156, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 246769.1
Deduct 156 from 170 and we're left 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 10:
When dividing 140 by 156, we get 0 with a remainder of 140.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 246769.1
If we subtract 0 from 140, we get 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
156 goes into 1400 8 times with a remainder of 152.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 246769.108
The remainder is 152 after subtracting 1248 from 1400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
156 can be fit into 1520 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 116.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 246769.1089
Subtracting 1404 from 1520 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 156 fits into 1160 7 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 246769.10897
Deduct 1092 from 1160 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
680 divided by 156 is 4 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 246769.108974
If we subtract 624 from 680, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 156 fits into 560 3 times, leaving a remainder of 92.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 246769.1089743
Subtract 468 from 560 to get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
156 can be fit into 920 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 140.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 246769.10897435
If we take 780 away from 920, 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.

The quotient of the division is 246769.10897435, and the remainder is 1.4e-07.
