Let's divide 463532 by 38
We want to divide 463532 by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
38 can be fit into 46 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 38 from 46 to get 8.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 83 / 38

Step 3:
The number 38 fits into 83 2 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 76 from 83, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 75 / 38

On to step 4:
When dividing 75 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121.0
Subtracting 38 from 75 leaves us with 37.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 373 / 38

Step 5:
If we divide 373 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1219.0
Subtracting 342 from 373 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 312 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
38 can be fit into 312 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12198.0
If we subtract 304 from 312, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12198.2
Deduct 76 from 80 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
38 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12198.21
Subtracting 38 from 40 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 38 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12198.21
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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.

Moving on to step 10:
200 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12198.2105
Subtracting 190 from 200 leaves us 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.

On to step 11:
38 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12198.21052
Subtracting 76 from 100 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 240 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12198.210526
If we subtract 228 from 240, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
38 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12198.2105263
Subtract 114 from 120 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12198.21052631
If we take 38 away from 60, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final result is 12198.21052631 with a remainder of 2.2e-08.
