838871 divided by 38 
Our goal is to divide 838871 by 38.

Advancing to step 1:
38 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 83 / 38

On to step 2:
38 can be fit into 83 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 76 from 83, we get 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 78 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 76 from 78.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 38

On to step 4:
When dividing 28 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 220.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 287 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
38 goes into 287 7 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2207.0
Subtract 266 from 287 to get 21.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 211 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 38 fits into 211 5 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22075.0
Deduct 190 from 211 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 210 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22075.5
Subtracting 190 from 210 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 8:
38 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22075.55
Deduct 190 from 200 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.

Our division results in 22075.55 with a remaining 0.01.
