We're dividing 38697474 by 59 
Let's see how many times 59 fits into 38697474.

Advancing to step 1:
59 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
59 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 38 leaves us with 38.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 386 / 59

Step 3:
386 divided by 59 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 354 from 386, we get 32.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 329 / 59

Let's proceed to step 4:
59 can be fit into 329 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 65.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 295 from 329.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 347 / 59

Advancing to step 5:
59 goes into 347 5 times with a remainder of 52.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 655.0
Deduct 295 from 347 and we're left with 52.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 524 / 59

Step 6:
If we divide 524 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 52.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6558.0
If we subtract 472 from 524, we get 52.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 527 / 59

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 59 fits into 527 8 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 65588.0
If we take 472 away from 527, we end up with 55.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 554 / 59

Going ahead to step 8:
59 can be fit into 554 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 655889.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 531 from 554.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
59 can be fit into 230 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 655889.3
If we subtract 177 from 230, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 530 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 655889.38
Subtracting 472 from 530 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
59 goes into 580 9 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 655889.389
Subtract 531 from 580 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
59 goes into 490 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 655889.3898
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 472 from 490.
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 13:
180 divided by 59 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 655889.38983
Subtract 177 from 180 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 59 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 655889.38983
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 59 fits into 300 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 655889.3898305
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 295 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
59 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 655889.3898305
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 655889.3898305 with a balance of 5e-08.
