We divide 598309 by 38
We want to divide 598309 by 38.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 59 / 38

Moving on to step 2:
59 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 38 from 59.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 218 / 38

On to step 3:
The number 38 fits into 218 5 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 190 away from 218, we end up with 28.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 283 / 38

Step 4:
38 goes into 283 7 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 157.0
If we subtract 266 from 283, we get 17.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 170 / 38

Step 5:
38 can be fit into 170 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1574.0
If we subtract 152 from 170, we get 18.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 189 / 38

On to step 6:
If we divide 189 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 15744.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 152 from 189.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 370 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 28.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15744.9
Deduct 342 from 370 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15744.97
Subtracting 266 from 280 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 140 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15744.973
If we take 114 away from 140, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 260 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15744.9736
If we take 228 away from 260, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 320 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15744.97368
If we take 304 away from 320, 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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15744.973684
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 80 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15744.9736842
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 76 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 40 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 15744.97368421
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.

After the division, we end up with 15744.97368421 and a remainder of 2e-09.
