We divide 542563 by 38
We want to figure out the number of times 542563 can be divided by 38.

Step 1:
38 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 38

Moving on to step 2:
38 can be fit into 54 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 38 from 54 leaves us with 16.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 162 / 38

Step 3:
The number 38 fits into 162 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 152 from 162.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 105 / 38

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 38 fits into 105 2 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 142.0
If we take 76 away from 105, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 296 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 296 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1427.0
Subtracting 266 from 296 leaves us with 30.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 303 / 38

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 303 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14277.0
If we subtract 266 from 303, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 370 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 28.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14277.9
Subtracting 342 from 370 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14277.97
Subtract 266 from 280 to get 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 9:
If we divide 140 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14277.973
If we take 114 away from 140, we end up 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.

On to step 10:
38 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14277.9736
Subtracting 228 from 260 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 320 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 14277.97368
Subtract 304 from 320 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
160 divided by 38 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14277.973684
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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 80 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 14277.9736842
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 76 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 14:
38 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14277.97368421
Subtract 38 from 40 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14277.97368421 and a remainder of 2e-09.
