Let's divide 531026 by 38
We want to divide 531026 by 38.

Step 1:
5 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 53 / 38

On to step 2:
If we divide 53 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 38 from 53 to get 15.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 151 / 38

On to step 3:
The number 38 fits into 151 3 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 114 away from 151, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 370 / 38

On to step 4:
370 divided by 38 is 9 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 139.0
Subtract 342 from 370 to get 28.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 282 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
38 can be fit into 282 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1397.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 266 from 282.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 166 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 38 fits into 166 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13974.0
Subtract 152 from 166 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13974.3
Deduct 114 from 140 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 260 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 13974.36
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 228 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13974.368
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
38 can be fit into 160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13974.3684
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 152 from 160.
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 11:
When dividing 80 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13974.36842
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13974.368421
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 38 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
38 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13974.368421
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
200 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13974.36842105
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 190 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 13974.36842105 with a balance of 1e-08.
