We divide 38 by 4
We're looking to find how many times 4 goes into 38.

Step 1:
4 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 4

Let's proceed to step 2:
4 can be fit into 38 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 36 from 38 to 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.

Advancing to step 3:
20 divided by 4 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9.5
Subtracting 20 from 20 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 4:
4 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 4 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9.5 with a balance of 0.0.
