38541736 ÷ 879 
We're looking to find how many times 879 goes into 38541736.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 879, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 879

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 38 by 879, we get 0 with a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 38 to get 38.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 385 / 879

Advancing to step 3:
879 goes into 385 0 times with a remainder of 385.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 385, we get 385.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 385 and continue: 3854 / 879

On to step 4:
3854 divided by 879 is 4 with a remainder of 338.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 3516 from 3854, we get 338.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 338, then repeat: 3381 / 879

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 3381 by 879, we get 3 with a remainder of 744.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
The remainder is 744 after subtracting 2637 from 3381.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 744 and continue with: 7447 / 879

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 879 fits into 7447 8 times, leaving a remainder of 415.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 438.0
Deduct 7032 from 7447 and we're left with 415.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 415 and continue: 4153 / 879

Step 7:
879 can be fit into 4153 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 637.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4384.0
The remainder is 637 after subtracting 3516 from 4153.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 637 and continue with: 6376 / 879

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 6376 by 879, we get 7 with a remainder of 223.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43847.0
Subtracting 6153 from 6376 leaves us with 223.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2230, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
879 can be fit into 2230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 472.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 43847.2
Subtracting 1758 from 2230 leaves us with 472.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
4720 divided by 879 is 5 with a remainder of 325.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43847.25
The remainder is 325 after subtracting 4395 from 4720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3250, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
879 can be fit into 3250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 613.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43847.253
Deduct 2637 from 3250 and we're left with 613.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6130, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
879 goes into 6130 6 times with a remainder of 856.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43847.2536
Deduct 5274 from 6130 and we're left with 856.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 8560 by 879, we get 9 and a remainder of 649.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43847.25369
The remainder is 649 after subtracting 7911 from 8560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6490, and continue the process.

Step 14:
6490 divided by 879 is 7 with a remainder of 337.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43847.253697
If we take 6153 away from 6490, we end up with 337.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3370, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 879 fits into 3370 3 times, leaving a remainder of 733.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43847.2536973
Subtracting 2637 from 3370 leaves us with 733.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
7330 divided by 879 is 8 with a remainder of 298.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43847.25369738
Subtracting 7032 from 7330 leaves us with 298.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2980, and continue the process.

Our division results in 43847.25369738 with a remaining 2.98e-07.
