731942 ÷ 38 
Our goal is to divide 731942 by 38.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 73 / 38

Step 2:
If we divide 73 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 38 from 73 to get 35.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 351 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
38 goes into 351 9 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtract 342 from 351 to get 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
99 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 192.0
Subtract 76 from 99 to get 23.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 234 / 38

On to step 5:
234 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1926.0
Subtracting 228 from 234 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 62 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
62 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19261.0
If we subtract 38 from 62, we 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.

Moving on to step 7:
38 goes into 240 6 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 19261.6
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
38 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19261.63
If we subtract 114 from 120, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19261.631
Subtract 38 from 60 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 10:
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: 19261.6315
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.

On to step 11:
38 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19261.63157
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 266 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
38 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19261.631578
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 304 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
38 goes into 360 9 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19261.6315789
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 38 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19261.63157894
If we take 152 away from 180, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 19261.63157894, with a leftover of 2.8e-08.
