Let's divide 158756 by 38
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 158756.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 38 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 38

Step 2:
15 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 158 / 38

On to step 3:
38 goes into 158 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 152 from 158, we get 6.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 67 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 67 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 41.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 38 from 67.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 295 / 38

On to step 5:
38 goes into 295 7 times with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 417.0
Deduct 266 from 295 and we're left with 29.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 296 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
38 goes into 296 7 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4177.0
If we subtract 266 from 296, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4177.7
Deduct 266 from 300 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4177.78
If we subtract 304 from 340, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
38 can be fit into 360 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4177.789
Deduct 342 from 360 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 180 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4177.7894
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 152 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
280 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4177.78947
Subtracting 266 from 280 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
38 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4177.789473
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 114 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 260 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4177.7894736
Subtract 228 from 260 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 320 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4177.78947368
Subtracting 304 from 320 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 4177.78947368 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
