38498694 divided by 17 
We want to divide 38498694 by 17.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 17

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 38 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 34 from 38 to get 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 17

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 44 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtracting 34 from 44 leaves us with 10.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 109 / 17

On to step 4:
17 goes into 109 6 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 226.0
If we take 102 away from 109, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 17

On to step 5:
17 goes into 78 4 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2264.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 68 from 78.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 106 / 17

On to step 6:
106 divided by 17 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22646.0
Deduct 102 from 106 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 17

Going ahead to step 7:
17 goes into 49 2 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 226462.0
Deduct 34 from 49 and we're left with 15.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 154 / 17

Step 8:
154 divided by 17 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2264629.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 153 from 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 10 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2264629.0
Deduct 0 from 10 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 17 fits into 100 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2264629.05
If we subtract 85 from 100, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 150 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2264629.058
Subtracting 136 from 150 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 140 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2264629.0588
Subtracting 136 from 140 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 2264629.0588 with a remaining 4e-05.
