Let's divide 768966 by 38
We want to divide 768966 by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
38 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 76 / 38

Step 2:
76 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 76 away from 76, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 38

On to step 3:
When dividing 8 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 89 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 13.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 202.0
Subtracting 76 from 89 leaves us with 13.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 136 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 136 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2023.0
Subtract 114 from 136 to get 22.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 226 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
38 goes into 226 5 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20235.0
Subtract 190 from 226 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 goes into 360 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20235.9
Subtract 342 from 360 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 38 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20235.94
Subtracting 152 from 180 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
280 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20235.947
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 266 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
38 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20235.9473
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 260 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20235.94736
Deduct 228 from 260 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20235.947368
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.

Advancing to step 13:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20235.9473684
Subtract 152 from 160 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.

Step 14:
80 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20235.94736842
If we subtract 76 from 80, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 20235.94736842, with a leftover of 4e-09.
