We're dividing 38746871 by 438 
We're looking to find how many times 438 goes into 38746871.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 438, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 438

Going ahead to step 2:
38 divided by 438 is 0 with a remainder of 38.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 38 and we're left with 38.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 387 / 438

Step 3:
When dividing 387 by 438, we get 0 with a remainder of 387.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 387 leaves us with 387.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 387 and continue with: 3874 / 438

Advancing to step 4:
3874 divided by 438 is 8 with a remainder of 370.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 3504 from 3874 leaves us with 370.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 370 and continue with: 3706 / 438

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 438 fits into 3706 8 times, leaving a remainder of 202.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
Subtracting 3504 from 3706 leaves us with 202.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 202, then carry on: 2028 / 438

Step 6:
438 can be fit into 2028 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 276.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 884.0
Subtracting 1752 from 2028 leaves us with 276.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 276 and continue with: 2767 / 438

Step 7:
When dividing 2767 by 438, we get 6 with a remainder of 139.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8846.0
Deduct 2628 from 2767 and we're left with 139.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 139 and continue: 1391 / 438

On to step 8:
1391 divided by 438 is 3 with a remainder of 77.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 88463.0
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 1314 from 1391.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
438 can be fit into 770 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 332.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 88463.1
The remainder is 332 after subtracting 438 from 770.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
438 goes into 3320 7 times with a remainder of 254.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 88463.17
The remainder is 254 after subtracting 3066 from 3320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 438 fits into 2540 5 times, leaving a remainder of 350.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 88463.175
If we subtract 2190 from 2540, we get 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
438 goes into 3500 7 times with a remainder of 434.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 88463.1757
If we subtract 3066 from 3500, we get 434.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4340, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
438 can be fit into 4340 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 398.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 88463.17579
Deduct 3942 from 4340 and we're left with 398.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3980, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
3980 divided by 438 is 9 with a remainder of 38.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 88463.175799
Subtracting 3942 from 3980 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

The final result is 88463.175799 with a remainder of 3.8e-06.
