Let's divide 38701599 by 872
We're looking to find how many times 872 goes into 38701599.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 872 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 872

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 38 by 872, we get 0 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 387 / 872

On to step 3:
If we divide 387 by 872, we get 0 and a remainder of 387.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 387 to get 387.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 387 and repeat the process: 3870 / 872

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 3870 by 872, we get 4 and a remainder of 382.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 382 after subtracting 3488 from 3870.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 382 and continue with: 3821 / 872

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 872 fits into 3821 4 times, leaving a remainder of 333.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44.0
The remainder is 333 after subtracting 3488 from 3821.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 333, then carry on: 3335 / 872

On to step 6:
When dividing 3335 by 872, we get 3 with a remainder of 719.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 443.0
Subtracting 2616 from 3335 leaves us with 719.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 719, then repeat: 7199 / 872

Let's proceed to step 7:
872 can be fit into 7199 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 223.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4438.0
The remainder is 223 after subtracting 6976 from 7199.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 223, then carry on: 2239 / 872

On to step 8:
872 goes into 2239 2 times with a remainder of 495.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44382.0
If we take 1744 away from 2239, we end up with 495.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4950, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
872 can be fit into 4950 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 590.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44382.5
The remainder is 590 after subtracting 4360 from 4950.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5900, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 872 fits into 5900 6 times, leaving a remainder of 668.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44382.56
If we take 5232 away from 5900, we end up with 668.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
6680 divided by 872 is 7 with a remainder of 576.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44382.567
If we subtract 6104 from 6680, we get 576.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
872 goes into 5760 6 times with a remainder of 528.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44382.5676
Deduct 5232 from 5760 and we're left with 528.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5280, and continue the process.

Step 13:
5280 divided by 872 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44382.56766
If we subtract 5232 from 5280, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 44382.56766 and a remainder of 4.8e-05.
