Let's divide 717274 by 38
Our goal is to divide 717274 by 38.

Going ahead to step 1:
38 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 71 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 71 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 38 away from 71, we end up with 33.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 337 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 337 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 304 from 337 and we're left with 33.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 332 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
The number 38 fits into 332 8 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188.0
If we subtract 304 from 332, we get 28.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 287 / 38

Step 5:
When dividing 287 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1887.0
Subtracting 266 from 287 leaves us with 21.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 214 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 214 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18875.0
Subtracting 190 from 214 leaves us 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 7:
38 goes into 240 6 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18875.6
Subtract 228 from 240 to get 12.
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:
120 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18875.63
Subtract 114 from 120 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18875.631
Subtracting 38 from 60 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 220 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 18875.6315
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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 300 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18875.63157
Deduct 266 from 300 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
38 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18875.631578
If we take 304 away from 340, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 13:
360 divided by 38 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18875.6315789
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.

Step 14:
180 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18875.63157894
Deduct 152 from 180 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.

Our division results in 18875.63157894 with a remaining 2.8e-08.
