We divide 139684 by 38
We want to divide 139684 by 38.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 13 / 38

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 13 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 13 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 139 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 114 from 139 leaves us with 25.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 256 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 256 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 228 away from 256, we end up with 28.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 288 / 38

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 288 7 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 367.0
If we subtract 266 from 288, we get 22.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 224 / 38

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 38 fits into 224 5 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3675.0
Deduct 190 from 224 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3675.8
Subtract 304 from 340 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
360 divided by 38 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3675.89
If we take 342 away from 360, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 180 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3675.894
Deduct 152 from 180 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
280 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3675.8947
If we take 266 away from 280, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 140 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3675.89473
Deduct 114 from 140 and we're left 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 12:
If we divide 260 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3675.894736
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.

Step 13:
The number 38 fits into 320 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3675.8947368
Subtracting 304 from 320 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3675.89473684
If we subtract 152 from 160, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3675.89473684 with a balance of 8e-09.
