We're dividing 88871984 by 38 
We want to figure out the number of times 88871984 can be divided by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 88 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 76 from 88 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 128 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
38 can be fit into 128 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23.0
Deduct 114 from 128 and we're left with 14.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 147 / 38

On to step 4:
When dividing 147 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 233.0
Subtracting 114 from 147 leaves us with 33.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 331 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 331 8 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2338.0
Subtract 304 from 331 to get 27.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 279 / 38

Going ahead to step 6:
279 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23387.0
If we subtract 266 from 279, we get 13.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 138 / 38

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 138 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 24.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 233873.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 114 from 138.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 244 / 38

Moving on to step 8:
38 goes into 244 6 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2338736.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 228 from 244.
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 9:
38 goes into 160 4 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2338736.4
Subtracting 152 from 160 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2338736.42
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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2338736.421
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.

On to step 12:
38 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2338736.421
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2338736.42105
Subtract 190 from 200 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
100 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2338736.421052
Subtract 76 from 100 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 15:
When dividing 240 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2338736.4210526
Deduct 228 from 240 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
When dividing 120 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2338736.42105263
If we take 114 away from 120, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2338736.42105263 with a remaining 6e-09.
