We divide 33478240 by 138
Our goal is to divide 33478240 by 138.

Step 1:
138 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 33 / 138

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 33 by 138, we get 0 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 33 to get 33.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 334 / 138

Step 3:
When dividing 334 by 138, we get 2 with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 276 from 334 and we're left with 58.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 587 / 138

Going ahead to step 4:
587 divided by 138 is 4 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 552 away from 587, we end up with 35.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 358 / 138

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 358 by 138, we get 2 with a remainder of 82.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 242.0
Subtract 276 from 358 to get 82.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 82 and continue: 822 / 138

Step 6:
822 divided by 138 is 5 with a remainder of 132.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2425.0
Deduct 690 from 822 and we're left with 132.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 132, then repeat: 1324 / 138

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 1324 by 138, we get 9 and a remainder of 82.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24259.0
If we take 1242 away from 1324, we end up with 82.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 82, then repeat: 820 / 138

Moving on to step 8:
The number 138 fits into 820 5 times, leaving a remainder of 130.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 242595.0
Subtracting 690 from 820 leaves us with 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Step 9:
1300 divided by 138 is 9 with a remainder of 58.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 242595.9
Subtracting 1242 from 1300 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 580 by 138, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 242595.94
Subtract 552 from 580 to get 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 11:
138 goes into 280 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242595.942
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 276 from 280.
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 12:
If we divide 40 by 138, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 242595.942
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 138 fits into 400 2 times, leaving a remainder of 124.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242595.94202
Subtract 276 from 400 to get 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 1240 by 138, we get 8 and a remainder of 136.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 242595.942028
If we subtract 1104 from 1240, we get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 1360 by 138, we get 9 and a remainder of 118.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 242595.9420289
Subtract 1242 from 1360 to get 118.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
138 goes into 1180 8 times with a remainder of 76.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 242595.94202898
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 1104 from 1180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

The final result is 242595.94202898 with a remainder of 7.6e-08.
