Let's divide 254496 by 38
Our goal is to divide 254496 by 38.

Going ahead to step 1:
38 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 254 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 254 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 228 from 254.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 264 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 264 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 66.0
If we subtract 228 from 264, we get 36.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 369 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 369 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 669.0
If we subtract 342 from 369, we get 27.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 276 / 38

Step 6:
38 can be fit into 276 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6697.0
If we take 266 away from 276, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
100 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6697.2
Subtracting 76 from 100 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
38 goes into 240 6 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6697.26
If we take 228 away from 240, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
38 can be fit into 120 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6697.263
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 114 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
38 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6697.2631
Deduct 38 from 60 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
38 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6697.26315
If we take 190 away from 220, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 300 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6697.263157
Subtracting 266 from 300 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 340 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6697.2631578
If we subtract 304 from 340, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 360 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6697.26315789
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 342 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6697.26315789, with a leftover of 1.8e-08.
