We look at the division of 288540 by 38 
We're looking to find how many times 38 goes into 288540.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 38

On to step 2:
38 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 288 / 38

Going ahead to step 3:
38 goes into 288 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 266 from 288 to get 22.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 225 / 38

Step 4:
225 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75.0
Deduct 190 from 225 and we're left with 35.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 354 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 354 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 759.0
Subtract 342 from 354 to get 12.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 120 / 38

Step 6:
If we divide 120 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 7593.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 114 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
60 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7593.1
If we subtract 38 from 60, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 220 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7593.15
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 300 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7593.157
If we subtract 266 from 300, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 10:
38 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7593.1578
Deduct 304 from 340 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
38 goes into 360 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7593.15789
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 180 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7593.157894
If we take 152 away from 180, we end up 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 13:
The number 38 fits into 280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7593.1578947
If we subtract 266 from 280, we get 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 14:
38 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7593.15789473
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.

After the division, we end up with 7593.15789473 and a remainder of 2.6e-08.
