831540 ÷ 38 
Our goal is to divide 831540 by 38.

Step 1:
The number 38 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 83 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
38 goes into 83 2 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 76 from 83 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 71 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 71 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 38 from 71 to get 33.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 335 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 335 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 218.0
Subtract 304 from 335 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 314 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 314 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2188.0
Subtract 304 from 314 to get 10.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 100 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 100 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21882.0
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.

Going ahead to step 7:
240 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21882.6
Subtract 228 from 240 to get 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:
The number 38 fits into 120 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21882.63
Subtracting 114 from 120 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21882.631
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
38 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21882.6315
Deduct 190 from 220 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 21882.63157
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.

Moving on to step 12:
38 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21882.631578
Subtract 304 from 340 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
38 goes into 360 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21882.6315789
If we take 342 away from 360, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 180 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 21882.63157894
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.

After the division, we end up with 21882.63157894 and a remainder of 2.8e-08.
