Let's divide 38872007 by 491
Our goal is to divide 38872007 by 491.

Step 1:
3 divided by 491 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 491

Step 2:
491 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 38, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 388 / 491

Step 3:
If we divide 388 by 491, we get 0 and a remainder of 388.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 388, we get 388.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 388 and continue with: 3887 / 491

Step 4:
When dividing 3887 by 491, we get 7 with a remainder of 450.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 3437 from 3887 to get 450.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 450, then repeat: 4502 / 491

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 4502 by 491, we get 9 and a remainder of 83.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79.0
If we take 4419 away from 4502, we end up with 83.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 83, then repeat: 830 / 491

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 830 by 491, we get 1 and a remainder of 339.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 791.0
Deduct 491 from 830 and we're left with 339.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 339, then repeat: 3390 / 491

Advancing to step 7:
491 goes into 3390 6 times with a remainder of 444.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7916.0
Deduct 2946 from 3390 and we're left with 444.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 444 and continue with: 4447 / 491

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 4447 by 491, we get 9 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 79169.0
If we subtract 4419 from 4447, 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.

Advancing to step 9:
491 can be fit into 280 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 280.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79169.0
Deduct 0 from 280 and we're left with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 2800 by 491, we get 5 with a remainder of 345.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 79169.05
Deduct 2455 from 2800 and we're left with 345.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
491 can be fit into 3450 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79169.057
Deduct 3437 from 3450 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
491 can be fit into 130 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 130.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 79169.057
If we subtract 0 from 130, we get 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
491 can be fit into 1300 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 318.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 79169.05702
Subtract 982 from 1300 to get 318.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 3180 by 491, we get 6 with a remainder of 234.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 79169.057026
If we subtract 2946 from 3180, we get 234.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2340, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 2340 by 491, we get 4 with a remainder of 376.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 79169.0570264
The remainder is 376 after subtracting 1964 from 2340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 3760 by 491, we get 7 and a remainder of 323.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 79169.05702647
The remainder is 323 after subtracting 3437 from 3760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3230, and continue the process.

The final result is 79169.05702647 with a remainder of 3.23e-07.
