Let's divide 38977933 by 542
We want to divide 38977933 by 542.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 542, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 542

Let's proceed to step 2:
542 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 38, we end up with 38.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 389 / 542

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 389 by 542, we get 0 and a remainder of 389.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 389 and we're left with 389.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 389 and continue with: 3897 / 542

Moving on to step 4:
542 can be fit into 3897 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 103.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 3794 from 3897 leaves us with 103.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 103, then repeat: 1037 / 542

Going ahead to step 5:
542 can be fit into 1037 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 495.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 71.0
If we take 542 away from 1037, we end up with 495.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 495, then repeat: 4959 / 542

Let's proceed to step 6:
542 goes into 4959 9 times with a remainder of 81.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 719.0
Deduct 4878 from 4959 and we're left with 81.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 81, then repeat: 813 / 542

Moving on to step 7:
542 goes into 813 1 times with a remainder of 271.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7191.0
If we take 542 away from 813, we end up with 271.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 271 and repeat the process: 2713 / 542

On to step 8:
If we divide 2713 by 542, we get 5 and a remainder of 3.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 71915.0
If we subtract 2710 from 2713, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
30 divided by 542 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 71915.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us 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 10:
542 goes into 300 0 times with a remainder of 300.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 71915.0
Subtracting 0 from 300 leaves us with 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 71915.0, with a leftover of 0.3.
