We're dividing 983117 by 38 
We're looking to find how many times 38 goes into 983117.

Moving on to step 1:
38 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 76 from 98.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 223 / 38

On to step 3:
When dividing 223 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtract 190 from 223 to get 33.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 331 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 331 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 258.0
If we subtract 304 from 331, we get 27.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 271 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 271 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2587.0
If we take 266 away from 271, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 57 / 38

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 57 by 38, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25871.0
Subtract 38 from 57 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
190 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25871.5
Subtract 190 from 190 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 38 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25871.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 0 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25871.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 25871.5, and the remainder is 0.0.
