38204112 divided by 172 
Our goal is to divide 38204112 by 172.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 172

Advancing to step 2:
The number 172 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 38, we end up with 38.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 382 / 172

Advancing to step 3:
The number 172 fits into 382 2 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 344 from 382.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 380 / 172

On to step 4:
172 can be fit into 380 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we subtract 344 from 380, we get 36.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 364 / 172

Let's proceed to step 5:
172 can be fit into 364 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 222.0
Deduct 344 from 364 and we're left with 20.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 201 / 172

Advancing to step 6:
201 divided by 172 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2221.0
Deduct 172 from 201 and we're left with 29.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 291 / 172

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 291 by 172, we get 1 and a remainder of 119.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22211.0
Deduct 172 from 291 and we're left with 119.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 119 and continue with: 1192 / 172

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 1192 by 172, we get 6 and a remainder of 160.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 222116.0
The remainder is 160 after subtracting 1032 from 1192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 1600 by 172, we get 9 and a remainder of 52.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 222116.9
Deduct 1548 from 1600 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
520 divided by 172 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 222116.93
If we take 516 away from 520, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
172 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 222116.93
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 172, we get 2 and a remainder of 56.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 222116.9302
If we take 344 away from 400, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 560 by 172, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 222116.93023
If we subtract 516 from 560, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 440 by 172, we get 2 with a remainder of 96.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 222116.930232
Subtract 344 from 440 to get 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
172 can be fit into 960 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 222116.9302325
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 860 from 960.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
172 can be fit into 1000 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 140.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 222116.93023255
If we subtract 860 from 1000, we get 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 222116.93023255 with a balance of 1.4e-07.
