We look at the division of 38976939 by 187 
Let's see how many times 187 fits into 38976939.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 187, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 187

Advancing to step 2:
The number 187 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 389 / 187

Step 3:
187 can be fit into 389 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 374 from 389 leaves us with 15.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 157 / 187

Going ahead to step 4:
187 can be fit into 157 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 157.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 157 leaves us with 157.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 157 and continue with: 1576 / 187

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1576 by 187, we get 8 with a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 208.0
If we take 1496 away from 1576, we end up with 80.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 80, then carry on: 809 / 187

Advancing to step 6:
The number 187 fits into 809 4 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2084.0
Subtracting 748 from 809 leaves us with 61.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 61, then repeat: 613 / 187

On to step 7:
187 goes into 613 3 times with a remainder of 52.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20843.0
Subtracting 561 from 613 leaves us with 52.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 529 / 187

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 187 fits into 529 2 times, leaving a remainder of 155.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 208432.0
The remainder is 155 after subtracting 374 from 529.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 187 fits into 1550 8 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 208432.8
Subtract 1496 from 1550 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 540 by 187, we get 2 and a remainder of 166.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 208432.82
Deduct 374 from 540 and we're left with 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
187 can be fit into 1660 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 164.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 208432.828
Subtract 1496 from 1660 to get 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 1640 by 187, we get 8 with a remainder of 144.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 208432.8288
The remainder is 144 after subtracting 1496 from 1640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 208432.8288, with a leftover of 0.00144.
