Let's divide 258821 by 38
We want to figure out the number of times 258821 can be divided by 38.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
38 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 258 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 258 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 30.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 228 from 258 to get 30.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 308 / 38

Step 4:
308 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
Subtracting 304 from 308 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 42 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 681.0
If we subtract 38 from 42, we get 4.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 41 / 38

Step 6:
38 can be fit into 41 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6811.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 38 from 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
38 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6811.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
38 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6811.07
If we take 266 away from 300, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 340 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6811.078
Deduct 304 from 340 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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6811.0789
Subtract 342 from 360 to get 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 11:
The number 38 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6811.07894
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
38 goes into 280 7 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6811.078947
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 266 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
140 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6811.0789473
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 114 from 140.
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 14:
260 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6811.07894736
Subtract 228 from 260 to 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.

The final result is 6811.07894736 with a remainder of 3.2e-08.
