We're dividing 298903 by 38 
Our goal is to divide 298903 by 38.

Step 1:
38 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 38

Let's proceed to step 2:
38 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 29 to get 29.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 298 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 298 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 32.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 266 from 298.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 329 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 329 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 78.0
Subtract 304 from 329 to get 25.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 250 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 250 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 786.0
Deduct 228 from 250 and we're left with 22.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 223 / 38

On to step 6:
223 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7865.0
Subtract 190 from 223 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 can be fit into 330 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7865.8
Subtracting 304 from 330 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 260 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7865.86
Deduct 228 from 260 and we're left 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 9:
When dividing 320 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7865.868
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 10:
The number 38 fits into 160 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7865.8684
Subtracting 152 from 160 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
80 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7865.86842
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.

On to step 12:
The number 38 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7865.868421
Subtracting 38 from 40 leaves us with 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:
If we divide 20 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7865.868421
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.

Moving on to step 14:
38 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7865.86842105
If we subtract 190 from 200, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7865.86842105 with a balance of 1e-08.
