We're dividing 154243 by 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 154243.

Going ahead to step 1:
38 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
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 38

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 154 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 154 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 152 from 154 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 22 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
If we take 0 away from 22, we end up with 22.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 224 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
38 goes into 224 5 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 405.0
If we take 190 away from 224, we end up with 34.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 343 / 38

Going ahead to step 6:
38 goes into 343 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4059.0
Subtract 342 from 343 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
38 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4059.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 8:
100 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4059.02
Deduct 76 from 100 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
38 can be fit into 240 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4059.026
Subtract 228 from 240 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
38 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4059.0263
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 114 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 60 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4059.02631
Subtract 38 from 60 to get 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 12:
38 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4059.026315
Deduct 190 from 220 and we're left with 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 13:
The number 38 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4059.0263157
If we subtract 266 from 300, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 340 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4059.02631578
If we subtract 304 from 340, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4059.02631578 with a balance of 3.6e-08.
