We're dividing 147848 by 38 
We want to figure out the number of times 147848 can be divided by 38.

Step 1:
38 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 14 and we're left with 14.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 147 / 38

Step 3:
When dividing 147 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 114 from 147, we get 33.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 338 / 38

On to step 4:
38 can be fit into 338 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38.0
Subtract 304 from 338 to get 34.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 344 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 344 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 389.0
Subtract 342 from 344 to get 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
38 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3890.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 280 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3890.7
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 266 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 38 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3890.73
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 114 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 260 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3890.736
Subtract 228 from 260 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 10:
38 can be fit into 320 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3890.7368
Subtract 304 from 320 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 160 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3890.73684
Subtracting 152 from 160 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
38 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3890.736842
If we take 76 away from 80, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3890.7368421
If we subtract 38 from 40, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
38 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3890.7368421
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.

After the division, we end up with 3890.7368421 and a remainder of 2e-08.
