We divide 23198 by 38
Our goal is to divide 23198 by 38.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 38

Step 2:
38 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 231 / 38

On to step 3:
38 goes into 231 6 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 228 from 231, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 39 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
38 goes into 39 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61.0
Subtract 38 from 39 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 38

On to step 5:
38 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 610.0
Deduct 0 from 18 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 6:
If we divide 180 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 610.4
Subtract 152 from 180 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 can be fit into 280 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 610.47
Deduct 266 from 280 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
If we divide 140 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 610.473
If we subtract 114 from 140, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
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: 610.4736
If we take 228 away from 260, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 320 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 610.47368
If we take 304 away from 320, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 610.473684
Subtracting 152 from 160 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 12:
38 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 610.4736842
If we subtract 76 from 80, 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.

Step 13:
The number 38 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 610.47368421
If we subtract 38 from 40, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final result is 610.47368421 with a remainder of 2e-09.
