We're dividing 5437884 by 338 
We want to divide 5437884 by 338.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 338, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 338

Going ahead to step 2:
338 goes into 54 0 times with a remainder of 54.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 0 from 54.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 543 / 338

Advancing to step 3:
338 can be fit into 543 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 205.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 205 after subtracting 338 from 543.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 205, then repeat: 2057 / 338

Step 4:
The number 338 fits into 2057 6 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 2028 from 2057, we get 29.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 298 / 338

Going ahead to step 5:
298 divided by 338 is 0 with a remainder of 298.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 160.0
If we take 0 away from 298, we end up with 298.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 298, then carry on: 2988 / 338

Let's proceed to step 6:
338 can be fit into 2988 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 284.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1608.0
Deduct 2704 from 2988 and we're left with 284.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 284 and repeat the process: 2844 / 338

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 2844 by 338, we get 8 and a remainder of 140.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16088.0
The remainder is 140 after subtracting 2704 from 2844.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
338 goes into 1400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16088.4
Subtracting 1352 from 1400 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
480 divided by 338 is 1 with a remainder of 142.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16088.41
The remainder is 142 after subtracting 338 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 338 fits into 1420 4 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16088.414
Subtract 1352 from 1420 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
338 goes into 680 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16088.4142
If we subtract 676 from 680, we get 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 12:
The number 338 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16088.4142
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 400 by 338, we get 1 with a remainder of 62.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16088.414201
Subtract 338 from 400 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 620 by 338, we get 1 with a remainder of 282.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16088.4142011
If we take 338 away from 620, we end up with 282.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2820, and continue the process.

The final result is 16088.4142011 with a remainder of 2.82e-06.
