We divide 544417 by 38
Our goal is to divide 544417 by 38.

On to step 1:
38 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 38

Moving on to step 2:
The number 38 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 38 away from 54, we end up with 16.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 164 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
164 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 152 from 164 leaves us with 12.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 124 / 38

On to step 4:
When dividing 124 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 143.0
Deduct 114 from 124 and we're left with 10.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 101 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 101 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1432.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 76 from 101.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 257 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
38 can be fit into 257 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14326.0
Subtracting 228 from 257 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 290 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14326.7
If we take 266 away from 290, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 240 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14326.76
If we subtract 228 from 240, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14326.763
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 114 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
38 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14326.7631
Subtract 38 from 60 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
38 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14326.76315
If we take 190 away from 220, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
38 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14326.763157
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 266 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 13:
38 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14326.7631578
Deduct 304 from 340 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 38 fits into 360 9 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14326.76315789
Subtracting 342 from 360 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.

Our division results in 14326.76315789 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
