38206261 ÷ 144 
Let's see how many times 144 fits into 38206261.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 144, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 144

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 38 by 144, we get 0 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 38 leaves us with 38.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 382 / 144

Let's proceed to step 3:
144 goes into 382 2 times with a remainder of 94.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 288 away from 382, we end up with 94.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 94, then repeat: 940 / 144

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 940 by 144, we get 6 and a remainder of 76.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we take 864 away from 940, we end up with 76.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 76 and repeat the process: 766 / 144

Step 5:
If we divide 766 by 144, we get 5 and a remainder of 46.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 265.0
If we subtract 720 from 766, we get 46.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 462 / 144

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 462 by 144, we get 3 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2653.0
Subtract 432 from 462 to get 30.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 306 / 144

Step 7:
When dividing 306 by 144, we get 2 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 26532.0
Deduct 288 from 306 and we're left with 18.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 181 / 144

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 181 by 144, we get 1 and a remainder of 37.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 265321.0
If we take 144 away from 181, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 144 fits into 370 2 times, leaving a remainder of 82.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 265321.2
If we take 288 away from 370, we end up with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 820 by 144, we get 5 and a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 265321.25
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 720 from 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 1000 by 144, we get 6 with a remainder of 136.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 265321.256
Subtract 864 from 1000 to get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 1360 by 144, we get 9 and a remainder of 64.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 265321.2569
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 1296 from 1360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 144 fits into 640 4 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 265321.25694
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 576 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
640 divided by 144 is 4 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 265321.256944
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 265321.256944 with a balance of 6.4e-06.
