We divide 121601 by 38
Our goal is to divide 121601 by 38.

Step 1:
The number 38 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 38

Advancing to step 2:
12 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 121 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 121 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 114 from 121 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 76 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 76 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 32.0
Deduct 76 from 76 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 0 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
38 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 320.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 38

On to step 6:
1 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3200.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3200.0
If we take 0 away from 10, 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.

On to step 8:
The number 38 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3200.02
If we subtract 76 from 100, 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 9:
If we divide 240 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3200.026
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 10:
38 can be fit into 120 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3200.0263
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3200.02631
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.

On to step 12:
220 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3200.026315
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 300 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3200.0263157
If we subtract 266 from 300, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
340 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3200.02631578
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.

The final result is 3200.02631578 with a remainder of 3.6e-08.
