480378 ÷ 38 
Our goal is to divide 480378 by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 38 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 38

Advancing to step 2:
The number 38 fits into 48 1 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 38 from 48.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 100 / 38

Going ahead to step 3:
38 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 76 from 100 to get 24.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 243 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 243 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 15.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 126.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 228 from 243.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 157 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 157 4 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1264.0
Deduct 152 from 157 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 58 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12641.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 38 from 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12641.5
Deduct 190 from 200 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 8:
38 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12641.52
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 76 from 100.
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:
240 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12641.526
If we take 228 away from 240, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 120 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12641.5263
Deduct 114 from 120 and we're left 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.

On to step 11:
60 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12641.52631
If we take 38 away from 60, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 12:
38 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12641.526315
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.

On to step 13:
300 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12641.5263157
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.

On to step 14:
If we divide 340 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12641.52631578
If we take 304 away from 340, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12641.52631578 with a balance of 3.6e-08.
