We look at the division of 162494 by 38 
We're looking to find how many times 38 goes into 162494.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
38 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 0 from 16.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 162 / 38

Step 3:
38 can be fit into 162 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 152 from 162.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 104 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 104 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we subtract 76 from 104, we get 28.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 289 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 289 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 427.0
Subtracting 266 from 289 leaves us with 23.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 234 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 234 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4276.0
Deduct 228 from 234 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
38 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4276.1
Subtracting 38 from 60 leaves us with 22.
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 8:
If we divide 220 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4276.15
Subtracting 190 from 220 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
38 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4276.157
Deduct 266 from 300 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
38 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4276.1578
If we take 304 away from 340, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
360 divided by 38 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4276.15789
Subtract 342 from 360 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.

Step 12:
180 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4276.157894
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 152 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 280 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4276.1578947
Subtract 266 from 280 to 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.

Moving on to step 14:
38 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4276.15789473
If we take 114 away from 140, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 4276.15789473 with a balance of 2.6e-08.
