Let's divide 657841 by 38
We want to divide 657841 by 38.

On to step 1:
38 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 65 / 38

On to step 2:
65 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 38 from 65 leaves us with 27.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 277 / 38

Going ahead to step 3:
38 goes into 277 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 266 away from 277, we end up with 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 38

Step 4:
The number 38 fits into 118 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 173.0
Deduct 114 from 118 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 44 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
44 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1731.0
If we subtract 38 from 44, we get 6.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 61 / 38

On to step 6:
If we divide 61 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17311.0
If we take 38 away from 61, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17311.6
Deduct 228 from 230 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 38 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17311.6
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
38 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17311.605
If we subtract 190 from 200, we 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.

Step 10:
The number 38 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17311.6052
Deduct 76 from 100 and we're left 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.

Step 11:
240 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17311.60526
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.

Step 12:
38 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17311.605263
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.

Moving on to step 13:
38 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17311.6052631
Subtracting 38 from 60 leaves us 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 14:
If we divide 220 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17311.60526315
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.

After the division, we end up with 17311.60526315 and a remainder of 3e-08.
