We divide 251261 by 38
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 251261.

Moving on to step 1:
38 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 38 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 251 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
38 goes into 251 6 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 228 from 251, we get 23.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 232 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 232 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 66.0
Deduct 228 from 232 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
46 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 661.0
Subtracting 38 from 46 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 81 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6612.0
Subtracting 76 from 81 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 50 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6612.1
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 38 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
38 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6612.13
If we take 114 away from 120, we end up 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.

Step 9:
60 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6612.131
If we take 38 away from 60, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 220 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6612.1315
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 190 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
38 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6612.13157
If we take 266 away from 300, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 12:
340 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6612.131578
Deduct 304 from 340 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
38 can be fit into 360 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6612.1315789
Deduct 342 from 360 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
180 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6612.13157894
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 152 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6612.13157894, and the remainder is 2.8e-08.
