We're dividing 146234 by 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 146234.

On to step 1:
The number 38 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
38 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 146 / 38

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 146 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 114 from 146 leaves us with 32.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 322 / 38

On to step 4:
322 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
Subtract 304 from 322 to get 18.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 183 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
38 can be fit into 183 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 384.0
If we take 152 away from 183, we end up with 31.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 314 / 38

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 314 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3848.0
If we take 304 away from 314, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 100 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3848.2
Subtracting 76 from 100 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 240 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3848.26
Subtracting 228 from 240 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 120 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3848.263
Deduct 114 from 120 and we're left with 6.
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 10:
60 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3848.2631
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 38 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
220 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3848.26315
If we subtract 190 from 220, we get 30.
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 12:
The number 38 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3848.263157
Subtracting 266 from 300 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
38 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3848.2631578
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 304 from 340.
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 14:
360 divided by 38 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3848.26315789
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.

The final result is 3848.26315789 with a remainder of 1.8e-08.
