We're dividing 5004538 by 388 
We want to divide 5004538 by 388.

Step 1:
5 divided by 388 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 388

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 388 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 500 / 388

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 388 fits into 500 1 times, leaving a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 388 away from 500, we end up with 112.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 112, then repeat: 1124 / 388

Step 4:
388 can be fit into 1124 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 348.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 348 after subtracting 776 from 1124.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 348, then carry on: 3485 / 388

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 3485 by 388, we get 8 and a remainder of 381.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 128.0
Subtract 3104 from 3485 to get 381.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 381, then carry on: 3813 / 388

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 388 fits into 3813 9 times, leaving a remainder of 321.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1289.0
The remainder is 321 after subtracting 3492 from 3813.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 321, then carry on: 3218 / 388

Step 7:
The number 388 fits into 3218 8 times, leaving a remainder of 114.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12898.0
Subtracting 3104 from 3218 leaves us with 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
1140 divided by 388 is 2 with a remainder of 364.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12898.2
If we take 776 away from 1140, we end up with 364.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 388 fits into 3640 9 times, leaving a remainder of 148.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 12898.29
Deduct 3492 from 3640 and we're left with 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 388 fits into 1480 3 times, leaving a remainder of 316.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12898.293
The remainder is 316 after subtracting 1164 from 1480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 3160 by 388, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12898.2938
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 3104 from 3160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 560 by 388, we get 1 with a remainder of 172.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12898.29381
Subtracting 388 from 560 leaves us with 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
388 can be fit into 1720 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 168.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 12898.293814
Subtracting 1552 from 1720 leaves us with 168.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 388 fits into 1680 4 times, leaving a remainder of 128.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12898.2938144
Subtract 1552 from 1680 to get 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12898.2938144 with a remaining 1.28e-06.
