We divide 51485401 by 38
We want to divide 51485401 by 38.

Going ahead to step 1:
38 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 38

On to step 2:
38 can be fit into 51 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 38 from 51 to get 13.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 134 / 38

Going ahead to step 3:
38 can be fit into 134 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 114 away from 134, we end up with 20.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 208 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
38 goes into 208 5 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 135.0
If we subtract 190 from 208, we get 18.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 185 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 185 4 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1354.0
If we subtract 152 from 185, we get 33.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 334 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
38 goes into 334 8 times with a remainder of 30.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13548.0
Subtracting 304 from 334 leaves us with 30.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 300 / 38

Advancing to step 7:
300 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 135487.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 266 from 300.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 341 / 38

Step 8:
The number 38 fits into 341 8 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1354878.0
Subtract 304 from 341 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 370 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1354878.9
If we subtract 342 from 370, 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 10:
38 can be fit into 280 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1354878.97
If we subtract 266 from 280, we 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.

Moving on to step 11:
140 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 26.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1354878.973
If we take 114 away from 140, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 12:
38 can be fit into 260 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1354878.9736
Deduct 228 from 260 and we're left with 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 13:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1354878.97368
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.

Moving on to step 14:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1354878.973684
Subtracting 152 from 160 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 80 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1354878.9736842
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.

Going ahead to step 16:
38 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1354878.97368421
If we take 38 away from 40, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 1354878.97368421 with a balance of 2e-09.
