We look at the division of 21886172 by 838 
Let's see how many times 838 fits into 21886172.

Advancing to step 1:
838 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 838

Advancing to step 2:
838 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 218 / 838

Moving on to step 3:
838 goes into 218 0 times with a remainder of 218.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 218 to get 218.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 218 and repeat the process: 2188 / 838

On to step 4:
838 can be fit into 2188 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 512.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 1676 from 2188 to get 512.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 512, then repeat: 5126 / 838

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 5126 by 838, we get 6 and a remainder of 98.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 5028 from 5126 to get 98.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 981 / 838

Step 6:
838 goes into 981 1 times with a remainder of 143.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 261.0
Subtracting 838 from 981 leaves us with 143.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 143, then repeat: 1437 / 838

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 1437 by 838, we get 1 with a remainder of 599.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2611.0
Subtract 838 from 1437 to get 599.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 599, then repeat: 5992 / 838

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 5992 by 838, we get 7 and a remainder of 126.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26117.0
Subtracting 5866 from 5992 leaves us with 126.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 1260 by 838, we get 1 with a remainder of 422.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 26117.1
If we take 838 away from 1260, we end up with 422.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
4220 divided by 838 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26117.15
If we subtract 4190 from 4220, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 838 fits into 300 0 times, leaving a remainder of 300.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 26117.15
The remainder is 300 after subtracting 0 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 3000 by 838, we get 3 with a remainder of 486.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26117.1503
The remainder is 486 after subtracting 2514 from 3000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 4860 by 838, we get 5 and a remainder of 670.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26117.15035
Deduct 4190 from 4860 and we're left with 670.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 6700 by 838, we get 7 with a remainder of 834.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 26117.150357
If we take 5866 away from 6700, we end up with 834.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 8340 by 838, we get 9 and a remainder of 798.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26117.1503579
If we take 7542 away from 8340, we end up with 798.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
838 can be fit into 7980 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 438.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26117.15035799
Deduct 7542 from 7980 and we're left with 438.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4380, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 26117.15035799 with a balance of 4.38e-07.
