We're dividing 42179206 by 938 
We want to divide 42179206 by 938.

On to step 1:
The number 938 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 938

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 42 by 938, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 42 and we're left with 42.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 421 / 938

Step 3:
When dividing 421 by 938, we get 0 with a remainder of 421.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 421 to get 421.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 421, then repeat: 4217 / 938

Moving on to step 4:
4217 divided by 938 is 4 with a remainder of 465.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 3752 away from 4217, we end up with 465.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 465 and continue: 4659 / 938

On to step 5:
938 can be fit into 4659 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 907.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we take 3752 away from 4659, we end up with 907.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 907, then repeat: 9072 / 938

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 9072 by 938, we get 9 and a remainder of 630.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 449.0
If we take 8442 away from 9072, we end up with 630.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 630 and continue with: 6300 / 938

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 6300 by 938, we get 6 and a remainder of 672.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4496.0
The remainder is 672 after subtracting 5628 from 6300.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 672, then repeat: 6726 / 938

On to step 8:
938 goes into 6726 7 times with a remainder of 160.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44967.0
The remainder is 160 after subtracting 6566 from 6726.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
938 goes into 1600 1 times with a remainder of 662.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44967.1
Subtracting 938 from 1600 leaves us with 662.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 6620 by 938, we get 7 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44967.17
Deduct 6566 from 6620 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 11:
540 divided by 938 is 0 with a remainder of 540.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44967.17
If we take 0 away from 540, we end up with 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 5400 by 938, we get 5 and a remainder of 710.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44967.1705
Subtracting 4690 from 5400 leaves us with 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7100, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
7100 divided by 938 is 7 with a remainder of 534.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44967.17057
If we take 6566 away from 7100, we end up with 534.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5340, and continue the process.

Step 14:
938 goes into 5340 5 times with a remainder of 650.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44967.170575
If we subtract 4690 from 5340, we get 650.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6500, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
6500 divided by 938 is 6 with a remainder of 872.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44967.1705756
Subtract 5628 from 6500 to get 872.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
The number 938 fits into 8720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 278.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44967.17057569
If we take 8442 away from 8720, we end up with 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 44967.17057569, with a leftover of 2.78e-07.
