We're dividing 655498 by 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 655498.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 38 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 65 / 38

Step 2:
The number 38 fits into 65 1 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 38 from 65 leaves us with 27.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 275 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
38 can be fit into 275 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 266 from 275 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 94 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 94 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172.0
Deduct 76 from 94 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 189 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
38 can be fit into 189 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1724.0
Subtract 152 from 189 to get 37.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 378 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
378 divided by 38 is 9 with a remainder of 36.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17249.0
Deduct 342 from 378 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 can be fit into 360 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17249.9
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 342 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
180 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17249.94
If we subtract 152 from 180, we 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 9:
If we divide 280 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17249.947
Subtract 266 from 280 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
38 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17249.9473
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.

On to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17249.94736
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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17249.947368
Subtract 304 from 320 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 38 fits into 160 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17249.9473684
Subtract 152 from 160 to 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.

On to step 14:
38 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17249.94736842
If we take 76 away from 80, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 17249.94736842 and a remainder of 4e-09.
