Let's divide 38579 by 8
We want to divide 38579 by 8.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 8 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 8

Step 2:
8 can be fit into 38 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 32 from 38, we get 6.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 65 / 8

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 65 by 8, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtract 64 from 65 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 8

Moving on to step 4:
8 can be fit into 17 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 482.0
Subtract 16 from 17 to get 1.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
8 goes into 19 2 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4822.0
Subtract 16 from 19 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
8 can be fit into 30 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4822.3
Subtract 24 from 30 to 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.

Advancing to step 7:
8 goes into 60 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4822.37
If we take 56 away from 60, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
8 goes into 40 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4822.375
Subtract 40 from 40 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
8 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4822.375
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4822.375
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4822.375, with a leftover of 0.0.
