We look at the division of 394979 by 38 
We want to divide 394979 by 38.

On to step 1:
The number 38 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
38 can be fit into 39 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 38 from 39 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 14 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 149 / 38

On to step 4:
38 can be fit into 149 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 103.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 114 from 149.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 357 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 357 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1039.0
If we subtract 342 from 357, we get 15.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 159 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 159 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 7.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10394.0
If we take 152 away from 159, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
70 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10394.1
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 38 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
38 goes into 320 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10394.18
Deduct 304 from 320 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 160 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10394.184
If we take 152 away from 160, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
38 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10394.1842
Deduct 76 from 80 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
38 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10394.18421
If we take 38 away from 40, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
38 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10394.18421
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10394.1842105
Subtract 190 from 200 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 38 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10394.18421052
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 76 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10394.18421052 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
