279088 ÷ 38 
Our goal is to divide 279088 by 38.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
38 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 279 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
38 can be fit into 279 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 266 from 279.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 130 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
38 goes into 130 3 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 114 from 130.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 168 / 38

Step 5:
38 goes into 168 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 734.0
If we take 152 away from 168, we end up with 16.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 168 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 168 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7344.0
If we take 152 away from 168, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7344.4
Subtract 152 from 160 to get 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:
When dividing 80 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7344.42
If we subtract 76 from 80, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 40 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7344.421
Subtracting 38 from 40 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 38 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7344.421
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:
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: 7344.42105
Deduct 190 from 200 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 100 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7344.421052
Deduct 76 from 100 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 240 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7344.4210526
Deduct 228 from 240 and we're left 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:
38 can be fit into 120 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7344.42105263
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 7344.42105263 with a balance of 6e-09.
