38580972 ÷ 233 
We want to figure out the number of times 38580972 can be divided by 233.

Step 1:
233 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 233

Moving on to step 2:
38 divided by 233 is 0 with a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 385 / 233

On to step 3:
The number 233 fits into 385 1 times, leaving a remainder of 152.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 233 from 385 and we're left with 152.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 152, then carry on: 1528 / 233

Let's proceed to step 4:
233 can be fit into 1528 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 130.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 1398 from 1528, we get 130.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 130, then repeat: 1300 / 233

Step 5:
233 can be fit into 1300 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 135.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 165.0
Subtract 1165 from 1300 to get 135.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 135 and repeat the process: 1359 / 233

On to step 6:
If we divide 1359 by 233, we get 5 and a remainder of 194.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1655.0
The remainder is 194 after subtracting 1165 from 1359.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 194 and repeat the process: 1947 / 233

Advancing to step 7:
233 goes into 1947 8 times with a remainder of 83.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16558.0
Subtracting 1864 from 1947 leaves us with 83.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 83 and repeat the process: 832 / 233

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 832 by 233, we get 3 with a remainder of 133.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 165583.0
Subtracting 699 from 832 leaves us with 133.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 1330 by 233, we get 5 and a remainder of 165.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 165583.5
If we subtract 1165 from 1330, we get 165.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1650, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 1650 by 233, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 165583.57
Deduct 1631 from 1650 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
190 divided by 233 is 0 with a remainder of 190.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 165583.57
Subtracting 0 from 190 leaves us with 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
1900 divided by 233 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 165583.5708
If we subtract 1864 from 1900, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
233 can be fit into 360 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 127.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 165583.57081
Deduct 233 from 360 and we're left with 127.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1270, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 1270 by 233, we get 5 and a remainder of 105.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 165583.570815
If we take 1165 away from 1270, we end up with 105.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1050, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
When dividing 1050 by 233, we get 4 with a remainder of 118.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 165583.5708154
Subtract 932 from 1050 to get 118.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 1180 by 233, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 165583.57081545
Subtracting 1165 from 1180 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.

The final result is 165583.57081545 with a remainder of 1.5e-08.
