We're dividing 38239708 by 988 
We want to divide 38239708 by 988.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 988

Moving on to step 2:
988 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 38 to get 38.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 382 / 988

Step 3:
382 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 382.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 382 after subtracting 0 from 382.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 382 and continue with: 3823 / 988

Step 4:
If we divide 3823 by 988, we get 3 and a remainder of 859.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 2964 from 3823 and we're left with 859.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 859 and continue: 8599 / 988

On to step 5:
988 goes into 8599 8 times with a remainder of 695.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 7904 from 8599, we get 695.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 695, then repeat: 6957 / 988

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 6957 by 988, we get 7 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 387.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 6916 from 6957.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 410 / 988

Step 7:
When dividing 410 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 410.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3870.0
Deduct 0 from 410 and we're left with 410.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 410 and continue: 4108 / 988

Let's proceed to step 8:
4108 divided by 988 is 4 with a remainder of 156.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38704.0
Subtract 3952 from 4108 to get 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1560, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 1560 by 988, we get 1 with a remainder of 572.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38704.1
If we subtract 988 from 1560, we get 572.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5720, and continue the process.

Step 10:
988 goes into 5720 5 times with a remainder of 780.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 38704.15
If we subtract 4940 from 5720, we get 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7800, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
988 can be fit into 7800 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 884.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38704.157
If we take 6916 away from 7800, we end up with 884.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
8840 divided by 988 is 8 with a remainder of 936.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38704.1578
Subtracting 7904 from 8840 leaves us with 936.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9360, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
9360 divided by 988 is 9 with a remainder of 468.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38704.15789
Subtracting 8892 from 9360 leaves us with 468.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
988 can be fit into 4680 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 728.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38704.157894
Subtracting 3952 from 4680 leaves us with 728.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
988 can be fit into 7280 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 364.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38704.1578947
The remainder is 364 after subtracting 6916 from 7280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
988 can be fit into 3640 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 676.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38704.15789473
Subtract 2964 from 3640 to get 676.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6760, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 38704.15789473, with a leftover of 6.76e-07.
