946987 ÷ 38 
Let's see how many times 38 fits into 946987.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 94 / 38

On to step 2:
If we divide 94 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 18.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 76 from 94 leaves us with 18.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 186 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 38 fits into 186 4 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 152 from 186 and we're left with 34.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 349 / 38

On to step 4:
If we divide 349 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 7.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 249.0
If we take 342 away from 349, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 78 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
38 goes into 78 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2492.0
If we take 76 away from 78, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 38

On to step 6:
27 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24920.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 270 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24920.7
Subtract 266 from 270 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.

Moving on to step 8:
38 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24920.71
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 20 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24920.71
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
200 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24920.7105
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.

Moving on to step 11:
38 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 24920.71052
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 76 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 240 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24920.710526
If we subtract 228 from 240, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 38 fits into 120 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 24920.7105263
Subtracting 114 from 120 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 38 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24920.71052631
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 24920.71052631 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
