We're dividing 38351978 by 739 
Let's see how many times 739 fits into 38351978.

Advancing to step 1:
739 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 739

Let's proceed to step 2:
739 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 383 / 739

Step 3:
383 divided by 739 is 0 with a remainder of 383.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 383, we end up with 383.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 383, then carry on: 3835 / 739

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 3835 by 739, we get 5 with a remainder of 140.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 3695 from 3835 leaves us with 140.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 140 and continue with: 1401 / 739

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1401 by 739, we get 1 with a remainder of 662.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtracting 739 from 1401 leaves us with 662.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 662, then carry on: 6629 / 739

Going ahead to step 6:
739 goes into 6629 8 times with a remainder of 717.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 518.0
If we subtract 5912 from 6629, we get 717.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 717, then repeat: 7177 / 739

Let's proceed to step 7:
7177 divided by 739 is 9 with a remainder of 526.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5189.0
If we take 6651 away from 7177, we end up with 526.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 526, then carry on: 5268 / 739

Going ahead to step 8:
739 goes into 5268 7 times with a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 51897.0
Deduct 5173 from 5268 and we're left with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
739 goes into 950 1 times with a remainder of 211.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51897.1
Deduct 739 from 950 and we're left with 211.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
2110 divided by 739 is 2 with a remainder of 632.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51897.12
If we subtract 1478 from 2110, we get 632.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
739 goes into 6320 8 times with a remainder of 408.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51897.128
Deduct 5912 from 6320 and we're left with 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 739 fits into 4080 5 times, leaving a remainder of 385.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51897.1285
If we subtract 3695 from 4080, we get 385.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3850, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
3850 divided by 739 is 5 with a remainder of 155.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51897.12855
Subtract 3695 from 3850 to get 155.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1550, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 51897.12855 and a remainder of 0.000155.
