983685 divided by 38 
We want to figure out the number of times 983685 can be divided by 38.

Moving on to step 1:
38 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
38 goes into 98 2 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 76 from 98 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 223 / 38

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 38 fits into 223 5 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtracting 190 from 223 leaves us with 33.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 336 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
38 can be fit into 336 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 258.0
If we subtract 304 from 336, we get 32.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 328 / 38

On to step 5:
328 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2588.0
If we subtract 304 from 328, we get 24.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 245 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 245 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25886.0
Subtracting 228 from 245 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
170 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25886.4
Deduct 152 from 170 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
38 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25886.44
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.

After the division, we end up with 25886.44 and a remainder of 0.028.
