972037 ÷ 38 
We want to figure out the number of times 972037 can be divided by 38.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 38 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
97 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 21.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 76 from 97 to get 21.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 212 / 38

On to step 3:
The number 38 fits into 212 5 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtracting 190 from 212 leaves us with 22.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 220 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
38 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 255.0
If we subtract 190 from 220, we get 30.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 303 / 38

On to step 5:
38 can be fit into 303 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2557.0
If we subtract 266 from 303, we get 37.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 377 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
The number 38 fits into 377 9 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25579.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 342 from 377.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 350 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25579.9
Deduct 342 from 350 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
38 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25579.92
Subtracting 76 from 80 leaves us 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 9:
The number 38 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25579.921
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 38 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
38 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25579.921
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.

Advancing to step 11:
38 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25579.92105
Subtracting 190 from 200 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
38 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25579.921052
Subtract 76 from 100 to get 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:
38 can be fit into 240 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25579.9210526
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:
When dividing 120 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25579.92105263
Deduct 114 from 120 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 25579.92105263, and the remainder is 6e-09.
