We divide 38686281 by 957
We're looking to find how many times 957 goes into 38686281.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 957, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 957

Step 2:
When dividing 38 by 957, we get 0 with a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 38 leaves us with 38.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 386 / 957

On to step 3:
957 goes into 386 0 times with a remainder of 386.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 386 after subtracting 0 from 386.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 386, then repeat: 3868 / 957

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 3868 by 957, we get 4 with a remainder of 40.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 3828 from 3868, we get 40.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 406 / 957

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 406 by 957, we get 0 with a remainder of 406.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtract 0 from 406 to get 406.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 406, then carry on: 4062 / 957

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 4062 by 957, we get 4 with a remainder of 234.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 404.0
The remainder is 234 after subtracting 3828 from 4062.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 234 and continue with: 2348 / 957

Going ahead to step 7:
957 goes into 2348 2 times with a remainder of 434.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4042.0
Subtract 1914 from 2348 to get 434.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 434, then repeat: 4341 / 957

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 4341 by 957, we get 4 with a remainder of 513.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40424.0
If we take 3828 away from 4341, we end up with 513.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 5130 by 957, we get 5 and a remainder of 345.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40424.5
The remainder is 345 after subtracting 4785 from 5130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3450, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 3450 by 957, we get 3 with a remainder of 579.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40424.53
Subtract 2871 from 3450 to get 579.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5790, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
5790 divided by 957 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40424.536
Subtracting 5742 from 5790 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 480 by 957, we get 0 with a remainder of 480.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40424.536
The remainder is 480 after subtracting 0 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
957 can be fit into 4800 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 40424.53605
Subtracting 4785 from 4800 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
957 can be fit into 150 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 150.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40424.53605
Deduct 0 from 150 and we're left with 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 1500 by 957, we get 1 with a remainder of 543.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 40424.5360501
If we take 957 away from 1500, we end up with 543.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
If we divide 5430 by 957, we get 5 and a remainder of 645.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 40424.53605015
Subtracting 4785 from 5430 leaves us with 645.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6450, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 40424.53605015 with a balance of 6.45e-07.
