We look at the division of 579860 by 38 
We want to figure out the number of times 579860 can be divided by 38.

Advancing 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
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 38

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 57 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 38 from 57, we get 19.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 199 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 199 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 190 from 199, we get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 38 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 152.0
If we subtract 76 from 98, we get 22.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 226 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
226 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 36.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1525.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 190 from 226.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 360 / 38

On to step 6:
If we divide 360 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15259.0
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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 180 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15259.4
Deduct 152 from 180 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
If we divide 280 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15259.47
If we subtract 266 from 280, we 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
38 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15259.473
If we subtract 114 from 140, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 260 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15259.4736
If we take 228 away from 260, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
38 can be fit into 320 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15259.47368
If we subtract 304 from 320, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 38 fits into 160 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15259.473684
Deduct 152 from 160 and we're left with 8.
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 13:
The number 38 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15259.4736842
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 76 from 80.
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 14:
When dividing 40 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15259.47368421
If we subtract 38 from 40, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 15259.47368421 with a remaining 2e-09.
