608985 divided by 38 
We want to divide 608985 by 38.

On to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 60 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 38 away from 60, we end up with 22.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 228 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
The number 38 fits into 228 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 228 from 228 to get 0.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 9 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
The number 38 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 160.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 38

Step 5:
When dividing 98 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1602.0
Deduct 76 from 98 and we're left with 22.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 225 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 225 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16025.0
If we take 190 away from 225, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
38 can be fit into 350 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16025.9
Subtracting 342 from 350 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.

Moving on to step 8:
80 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16025.92
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 76 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
40 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16025.921
Deduct 38 from 40 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
38 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16025.921
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 200 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16025.92105
Subtract 190 from 200 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 100 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16025.921052
If we take 76 away from 100, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 13:
240 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16025.9210526
If we take 228 away from 240, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
120 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16025.92105263
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 114 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Our division results in 16025.92105263 with a remaining 6e-09.
