We divide 38117493 by 642
Let's see how many times 642 fits into 38117493.

On to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 642, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 642

Advancing to step 2:
The number 642 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 38, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 381 / 642

Moving on to step 3:
The number 642 fits into 381 0 times, leaving a remainder of 381.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 381, we get 381.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 381 and repeat the process: 3811 / 642

Going ahead to step 4:
642 goes into 3811 5 times with a remainder of 601.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 3210 from 3811 leaves us with 601.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 601 and continue: 6017 / 642

Advancing to step 5:
642 goes into 6017 9 times with a remainder of 239.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we take 5778 away from 6017, we end up with 239.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 239 and continue: 2394 / 642

On to step 6:
If we divide 2394 by 642, we get 3 and a remainder of 468.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 593.0
Subtract 1926 from 2394 to get 468.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 468 and continue: 4689 / 642

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 4689 by 642, we get 7 with a remainder of 195.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5937.0
If we subtract 4494 from 4689, we get 195.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 195 and repeat the process: 1953 / 642

Moving on to step 8:
642 goes into 1953 3 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59373.0
If we subtract 1926 from 1953, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 270 by 642, we get 0 and a remainder of 270.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 59373.0
Subtracting 0 from 270 leaves us with 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
642 goes into 2700 4 times with a remainder of 132.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 59373.04
If we subtract 2568 from 2700, we get 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
642 goes into 1320 2 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59373.042
Subtract 1284 from 1320 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.

Step 12:
When dividing 360 by 642, we get 0 with a remainder of 360.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 59373.042
If we subtract 0 from 360, we get 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 3600 by 642, we get 5 and a remainder of 390.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59373.04205
Subtracting 3210 from 3600 leaves us with 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3900, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 642 fits into 3900 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59373.042056
Subtract 3852 from 3900 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
642 can be fit into 480 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 480.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59373.042056
Subtract 0 from 480 to get 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
4800 divided by 642 is 7 with a remainder of 306.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59373.04205607
Subtract 4494 from 4800 to get 306.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3060, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 59373.04205607 with a balance of 3.06e-07.
