We're dividing 104856 by 38 
We want to divide 104856 by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 10 / 38

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 10 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 104 / 38

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 104 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 76 away from 104, we end up with 28.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 288 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
38 can be fit into 288 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we subtract 266 from 288, we get 22.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 225 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
38 can be fit into 225 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 275.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 190 from 225.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 356 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
38 goes into 356 9 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2759.0
If we subtract 342 from 356, 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 140 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2759.3
Subtract 114 from 140 to 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.

Advancing to step 8:
38 can be fit into 260 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2759.36
If we subtract 228 from 260, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2759.368
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.

On to step 10:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2759.3684
If we take 152 away from 160, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2759.36842
If we subtract 76 from 80, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2759.368421
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 38 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
38 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2759.368421
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
38 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2759.36842105
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2759.36842105 with a balance of 1e-08.
