We divide 486760 by 38
We want to divide 486760 by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 38, we get 0 with 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.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
48 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 38 from 48, we get 10.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 106 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 106 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 30.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 76 from 106.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 307 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 307 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 128.0
Deduct 304 from 307 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 36 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 36 0 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1280.0
Subtract 0 from 36 to get 36.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 360 / 38

On to step 6:
When dividing 360 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12809.0
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.

Advancing to step 7:
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: 12809.4
Subtract 152 from 180 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
280 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12809.47
If we subtract 266 from 280, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
38 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12809.473
If we subtract 114 from 140, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 38 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12809.4736
Deduct 228 from 260 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12809.47368
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 304 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 160 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12809.473684
Deduct 152 from 160 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
38 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12809.4736842
If we take 76 away from 80, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 14:
38 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12809.47368421
Subtract 38 from 40 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12809.47368421 with a balance of 2e-09.
