We're dividing 38992436 by 477 
We're looking to find how many times 477 goes into 38992436.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 477 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 477

Advancing to step 2:
The number 477 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 389 / 477

On to step 3:
389 divided by 477 is 0 with a remainder of 389.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 389 after subtracting 0 from 389.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 389, then carry on: 3899 / 477

Advancing to step 4:
The number 477 fits into 3899 8 times, leaving a remainder of 83.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 83 after subtracting 3816 from 3899.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 83, then carry on: 832 / 477

Step 5:
When dividing 832 by 477, we get 1 with a remainder of 355.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81.0
Subtract 477 from 832 to get 355.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 355 and repeat the process: 3554 / 477

On to step 6:
477 goes into 3554 7 times with a remainder of 215.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 817.0
If we take 3339 away from 3554, we end up with 215.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 215 and continue: 2153 / 477

Step 7:
2153 divided by 477 is 4 with a remainder of 245.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8174.0
Subtract 1908 from 2153 to get 245.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 245 and continue with: 2456 / 477

Going ahead to step 8:
477 goes into 2456 5 times with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 81745.0
Subtracting 2385 from 2456 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
710 divided by 477 is 1 with a remainder of 233.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81745.1
Deduct 477 from 710 and we're left with 233.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 477 fits into 2330 4 times, leaving a remainder of 422.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 81745.14
Deduct 1908 from 2330 and we're left with 422.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
4220 divided by 477 is 8 with a remainder of 404.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 81745.148
Subtract 3816 from 4220 to get 404.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4040, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 477 fits into 4040 8 times, leaving a remainder of 224.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81745.1488
If we subtract 3816 from 4040, we get 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 81745.1488 with a remaining 0.00224.
