Let's divide 689888 by 38
Our goal is to divide 689888 by 38.

Going ahead to step 1:
38 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 38

Advancing to step 2:
68 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 30.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 38 from 68 and we're left with 30.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 309 / 38

On to step 3:
38 goes into 309 8 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 304 from 309, we get 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
38 can be fit into 58 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 181.0
Deduct 38 from 58 and we're left with 20.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 208 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
38 goes into 208 5 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1815.0
Subtracting 190 from 208 leaves us with 18.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 188 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
38 goes into 188 4 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18154.0
Subtract 152 from 188 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 360 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18154.9
If we take 342 away from 360, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 8:
180 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18154.94
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.

Step 9:
38 goes into 280 7 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 18154.947
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.

On to step 10:
38 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18154.9473
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 11:
38 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18154.94736
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.

Moving on to step 12:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18154.947368
If we subtract 304 from 320, we 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 18154.9473684
If we subtract 152 from 160, we 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.

Step 14:
When dividing 80 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18154.94736842
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.

The quotient of the division is 18154.94736842, and the remainder is 4e-09.
