We're dividing 542334 by 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 542334.

On to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 38

On to step 2:
When dividing 54 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 38 from 54 to get 16.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 162 / 38

On to step 3:
When dividing 162 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 152 from 162 and we're left with 10.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 103 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
38 can be fit into 103 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 142.0
If we take 76 away from 103, we end up with 27.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 273 / 38

On to step 5:
38 goes into 273 7 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1427.0
Subtract 266 from 273 to get 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 38

On to step 6:
The number 38 fits into 74 1 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14271.0
Deduct 38 from 74 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
38 goes into 360 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14271.9
Subtracting 342 from 360 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 8:
38 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14271.94
If we take 152 away from 180, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 9:
38 goes into 280 7 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14271.947
Deduct 266 from 280 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
38 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14271.9473
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 260 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 14271.94736
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 228 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14271.947368
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
38 can be fit into 160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14271.9473684
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 14:
38 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14271.94736842
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 14271.94736842 with a balance of 4e-09.
