Let's divide 996944 by 38
We want to figure out the number of times 996944 can be divided by 38.

On to step 1:
The number 38 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 38

Step 2:
If we divide 99 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 76 away from 99, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 236 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
38 goes into 236 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we take 228 away from 236, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 89 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 13.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 262.0
Subtract 76 from 89 to get 13.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 134 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 134 3 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2623.0
Subtracting 114 from 134 leaves us with 20.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 204 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
38 can be fit into 204 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 26235.0
If we take 190 away from 204, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26235.3
Deduct 114 from 140 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
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: 26235.36
If we subtract 228 from 260, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26235.368
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
38 goes into 160 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26235.3684
If we take 152 away from 160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 11:
38 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 26235.36842
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.

Step 12:
When dividing 40 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26235.368421
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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 20 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26235.368421
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 200 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 26235.36842105
Subtract 190 from 200 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 26235.36842105 and a remainder of 1e-08.
