We look at the division of 38743221 by 494 
Let's see how many times 494 fits into 38743221.

Step 1:
494 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 38 / 494

Step 2:
The number 494 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 494

Going ahead to step 3:
494 can be fit into 387 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 387.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 387, we get 387.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 387 and repeat the process: 3874 / 494

On to step 4:
3874 divided by 494 is 7 with a remainder of 416.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 416 after subtracting 3458 from 3874.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 416 and continue with: 4163 / 494

On to step 5:
4163 divided by 494 is 8 with a remainder of 211.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 78.0
Deduct 3952 from 4163 and we're left with 211.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 211 and repeat the process: 2112 / 494

Advancing to step 6:
494 can be fit into 2112 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 784.0
If we subtract 1976 from 2112, we get 136.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 136, then repeat: 1362 / 494

On to step 7:
1362 divided by 494 is 2 with a remainder of 374.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7842.0
If we subtract 988 from 1362, we get 374.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 374, then repeat: 3741 / 494

Advancing to step 8:
The number 494 fits into 3741 7 times, leaving a remainder of 283.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 78427.0
Subtracting 3458 from 3741 leaves us with 283.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2830, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 494 fits into 2830 5 times, leaving a remainder of 360.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 78427.5
The remainder is 360 after subtracting 2470 from 2830.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 3600 by 494, we get 7 with a remainder of 142.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 78427.57
Subtract 3458 from 3600 to get 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
494 can be fit into 1420 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 432.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78427.572
Subtract 988 from 1420 to get 432.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4320, and continue the process.

Step 12:
494 goes into 4320 8 times with a remainder of 368.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78427.5728
If we subtract 3952 from 4320, we get 368.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3680, and continue the process.

Step 13:
494 goes into 3680 7 times with a remainder of 222.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 78427.57287
Deduct 3458 from 3680 and we're left with 222.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
494 can be fit into 2220 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 244.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 78427.572874
If we subtract 1976 from 2220, we get 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 2440 by 494, we get 4 with a remainder of 464.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 78427.5728744
The remainder is 464 after subtracting 1976 from 2440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4640, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 78427.5728744, and the remainder is 4.64e-06.
