We divide 657890 by 38
We want to divide 657890 by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
38 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 65 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 65 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 38 from 65 leaves us with 27.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 277 / 38

Step 3:
If we divide 277 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 266 away from 277, we end up with 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 38

On to step 4:
If we divide 118 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 173.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 114 from 118.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 38

On to step 5:
38 can be fit into 49 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1731.0
If we take 38 away from 49, we end up with 11.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 110 / 38

Step 6:
If we divide 110 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17312.0
Subtract 76 from 110 to 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.

Moving on to step 7:
38 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17312.8
Subtracting 304 from 340 leaves us 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.

Step 8:
If we divide 360 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17312.89
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.

Moving on to step 9:
180 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17312.894
Subtract 152 from 180 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 280 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17312.8947
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.

Advancing to step 11:
140 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17312.89473
Subtracting 114 from 140 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 38 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17312.894736
If we subtract 228 from 260, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17312.8947368
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.

Step 14:
If we divide 160 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17312.89473684
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 17312.89473684 with a balance of 8e-09.
