We're dividing 385942 by 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 385942.

Let's proceed to step 1:
38 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 38 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 38 from 38.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
38 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 59 / 38

On to step 4:
If we divide 59 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 21.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 101.0
If we take 38 away from 59, we end up with 21.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 214 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 214 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 24.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1015.0
Subtract 190 from 214 to get 24.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 242 / 38

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 242 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10156.0
If we subtract 228 from 242, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
140 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10156.3
Subtract 114 from 140 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 260 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10156.36
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 228 from 260.
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 9:
When dividing 320 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10156.368
Subtract 304 from 320 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10156.3684
Deduct 152 from 160 and we're left 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 80 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10156.36842
Subtract 76 from 80 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10156.368421
Subtract 38 from 40 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 38 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10156.368421
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 200 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10156.36842105
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 190 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 10156.36842105 with a remainder of 1e-08.
