We're dividing 286538 by 76 
We want to divide 286538 by 76.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 76, 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.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 76

Step 2:
The number 76 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 286 / 76

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 286 by 76, we get 3 and a remainder of 58.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 228 from 286 to get 58.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 585 / 76

Advancing to step 4:
76 can be fit into 585 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we subtract 532 from 585, we get 53.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 533 / 76

Moving on to step 5:
76 goes into 533 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 377.0
Deduct 532 from 533 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 76

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 18 by 76, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3770.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 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 7:
76 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3770.2
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
76 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 52.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3770.23
Deduct 228 from 280 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 520 by 76, we get 6 and a remainder of 64.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3770.236
If we take 456 away from 520, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
76 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3770.2368
If we take 608 away from 640, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 76, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3770.23684
If we take 304 away from 320, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 76, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3770.236842
If we take 152 away from 160, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
80 divided by 76 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3770.2368421
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 76 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 76 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3770.2368421
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3770.2368421 with a remaining 4e-08.
