12138 ÷ 44 
We want to figure out the number of times 12138 can be divided by 44.

Going ahead to step 1:
44 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 44

On to step 2:
12 divided by 44 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 121 / 44

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 44 fits into 121 2 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 88 from 121 leaves us with 33.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 333 / 44

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 333 by 44, we get 7 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtract 308 from 333 to get 25.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 258 / 44

Going ahead to step 5:
258 divided by 44 is 5 with a remainder of 38.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 275.0
If we take 220 away from 258, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
44 can be fit into 380 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 275.8
Subtract 352 from 380 to 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.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 280 by 44, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 275.86
If we subtract 264 from 280, we 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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 44 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 275.863
If we subtract 132 from 160, 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
280 divided by 44 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 275.8636
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
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:
44 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 275.86363
If we subtract 132 from 160, 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.

Step 11:
44 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 275.863636
If we take 264 away from 280, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 44 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 275.8636363
Subtract 132 from 160 to 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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 44 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 275.86363636
If we take 264 away from 280, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 275.86363636, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
