38599278 divided by 655 
We want to figure out the number of times 38599278 can be divided by 655.

On to step 1:
3 divided by 655 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 38 / 655

Moving on to step 2:
38 divided by 655 is 0 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 385 / 655

On to step 3:
655 can be fit into 385 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 385.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 385, we get 385.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 385, then repeat: 3859 / 655

Step 4:
When dividing 3859 by 655, we get 5 with a remainder of 584.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 3275 from 3859 and we're left with 584.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 584 and repeat the process: 5849 / 655

Step 5:
If we divide 5849 by 655, we get 8 and a remainder of 609.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58.0
Deduct 5240 from 5849 and we're left with 609.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 609 and continue with: 6092 / 655

Advancing to step 6:
6092 divided by 655 is 9 with a remainder of 197.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 589.0
Deduct 5895 from 6092 and we're left with 197.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 197 and continue with: 1977 / 655

Step 7:
If we divide 1977 by 655, we get 3 and a remainder of 12.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5893.0
Deduct 1965 from 1977 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 128 / 655

On to step 8:
The number 655 fits into 128 0 times, leaving a remainder of 128.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58930.0
If we take 0 away from 128, we end up with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
655 goes into 1280 1 times with a remainder of 625.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58930.1
Deduct 655 from 1280 and we're left with 625.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6250, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 6250 by 655, we get 9 with a remainder of 355.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58930.19
Deduct 5895 from 6250 and we're left with 355.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 655 fits into 3550 5 times, leaving a remainder of 275.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58930.195
Subtract 3275 from 3550 to get 275.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 2750 by 655, we get 4 and a remainder of 130.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58930.1954
Deduct 2620 from 2750 and we're left with 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
1300 divided by 655 is 1 with a remainder of 645.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58930.19541
Subtracting 655 from 1300 leaves us with 645.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 655 fits into 6450 9 times, leaving a remainder of 555.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58930.195419
The remainder is 555 after subtracting 5895 from 6450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
The number 655 fits into 5550 8 times, leaving a remainder of 310.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58930.1954198
Subtracting 5240 from 5550 leaves us with 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
655 can be fit into 3100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 480.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58930.19541984
If we subtract 2620 from 3100, we get 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 58930.19541984 and a remainder of 4.8e-07.
