We're dividing 617892 by 38 
We want to divide 617892 by 38.

Step 1:
38 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 61 / 38

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 61 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 38 from 61 to get 23.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 237 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 237 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 9.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 228 away from 237, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 98 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 162.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 76 from 98.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 229 / 38

On to step 5:
If we divide 229 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1626.0
Deduct 228 from 229 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 38

On to step 6:
38 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16260.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 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 7:
If we divide 120 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16260.3
Subtracting 114 from 120 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16260.31
Subtract 38 from 60 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
220 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 16260.315
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 190 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
38 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 16260.3157
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 266 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
38 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 16260.31578
If we take 304 away from 340, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 360 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16260.315789
If we subtract 342 from 360, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 38 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16260.3157894
If we take 152 away from 180, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 38 fits into 280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16260.31578947
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.

After the division, we end up with 16260.31578947 and a remainder of 1.4e-08.
