We divide 242582 by 38
We want to figure out the number of times 242582 can be divided by 38.

Advancing to step 1:
38 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 38 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 24 leaves us with 24.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 242 / 38

On to step 3:
38 can be fit into 242 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 228 away from 242, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 145 / 38

On to step 4:
If we divide 145 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 114 from 145, we get 31.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 318 / 38

Step 5:
If we divide 318 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 638.0
If we take 304 away from 318, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 142 / 38

Step 6:
If we divide 142 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 28.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6383.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 114 from 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 280 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6383.7
If we take 266 away from 280, we end up 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 8:
140 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6383.73
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.

Advancing to step 9:
38 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6383.736
Deduct 228 from 260 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 320 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6383.7368
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6383.73684
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 152 from 160.
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 12:
38 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6383.736842
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 76 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 40 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6383.7368421
Subtract 38 from 40 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 14:
38 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6383.7368421
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6383.7368421, and the remainder is 2e-08.
