We divide 138544 by 16
We want to divide 138544 by 16.

Going ahead to step 1:
16 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 13 / 16

On to step 2:
The number 16 fits into 13 0 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 13 leaves us with 13.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 138 / 16

Let's proceed to step 3:
16 can be fit into 138 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 128 from 138 to get 10.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 105 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
16 goes into 105 6 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86.0
Subtracting 96 from 105 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 94 / 16

Step 5:
The number 16 fits into 94 5 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 865.0
Subtract 80 from 94 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 144 / 16

On to step 6:
The number 16 fits into 144 9 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8659.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 144 from 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8659.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8659.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8659.0 with a balance of 0.0.
