Let's divide 258049 by 38
Our goal is to divide 258049 by 38.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
38 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 258 / 38

On to step 3:
38 can be fit into 258 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 228 from 258 leaves us with 30.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 300 / 38

On to step 4:
300 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 67.0
If we subtract 266 from 300, we get 34.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 344 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
38 goes into 344 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 679.0
Subtracting 342 from 344 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 38

Step 6:
38 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6790.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 can be fit into 290 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6790.7
If we subtract 266 from 290, 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.

Step 8:
240 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6790.76
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 9:
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: 6790.763
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 114 from 120.
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 10:
If we divide 60 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6790.7631
If we subtract 38 from 60, we 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 220 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6790.76315
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 12:
38 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6790.763157
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.

Advancing to step 13:
38 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6790.7631578
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
360 divided by 38 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6790.76315789
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.

The quotient of the division is 6790.76315789, and the remainder is 1.8e-08.
