Let's divide 423997 by 38
We want to figure out the number of times 423997 can be divided by 38.

Moving on to step 1:
38 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 38

Step 2:
When dividing 42 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 38 away from 42, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 43 / 38

Step 3:
The number 38 fits into 43 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 38 from 43 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 59 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
59 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 111.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 38 from 59.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 219 / 38

On to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 219 5 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1115.0
Deduct 190 from 219 and we're left with 29.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 297 / 38

Step 6:
When dividing 297 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 31.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11157.0
Subtract 266 from 297 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
310 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11157.8
Subtracting 304 from 310 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 60 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11157.81
Subtracting 38 from 60 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
220 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11157.815
If we subtract 190 from 220, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 300 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11157.8157
If we take 266 away from 300, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11157.81578
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 304 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 360 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11157.815789
If we take 342 away from 360, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 180 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11157.8157894
Deduct 152 from 180 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 280 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11157.81578947
If we subtract 266 from 280, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11157.81578947 and a remainder of 1.4e-08.
