We look at the division of 983461 by 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 983461.

Step 1:
38 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 38

Step 2:
If we divide 98 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 76 from 98 leaves us with 22.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 223 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 223 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 190 from 223.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 334 / 38

On to step 4:
38 goes into 334 8 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 258.0
If we take 304 away from 334, we end up with 30.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 306 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 306 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2588.0
Subtract 304 from 306 to get 2.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 38

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 21 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25880.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 210 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25880.5
If we subtract 190 from 210, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
200 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25880.55
If we take 190 away from 200, 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.

The quotient of the division is 25880.55, and the remainder is 0.01.
