To convert 338 to a decimal using long division, you need to divide 338 by a number that will give you a decimal result. Since the responses you provided do not specify a divisor, I will assume it is divided by 100, as that is a common way to express a number as a decimal.

Let's divide 338 by 100:

1. Set up the long division: 338 divided by 100.
2. 100 goes into 338 three times, since \( 3 \times 100 = 300 \).
3. Subtract 300 from 338, which leaves a remainder of 38.
4. Place a decimal point and bring down a zero, making it 380.
5. 100 goes into 380 three times, since \( 3 \times 100 = 300 \).
6. Subtract 300 from 380, which leaves a remainder of 80.
7. Bring down another zero, making it 800.
8. 100 goes into 800 eight times, since \( 8 \times 100 = 800 \).
9. Subtract 800 from 800, which leaves a remainder of 0.

So, 338 divided by 100 is 3.38, which corresponds to none of the options you've stated directly.

However, if we were to interpret "convert 338 to a decimal" as looking for a fixed-point representation, we would typically end up expressing it with two decimal places, yielding results like 338.00.

But let's reason out with the closest options you've supplied:
None of the options directly indicate what would equal to dividing 338 by those numbers or by 100.

However, the option that is most reasonable based on the behavior of decimal shifts of 338 is **3.38** which eventually leads no mention, or might be interpreted incorrectly could lead to an approximation to **3.375** doesn't really directly convert from **None of the options** directly corresponds.

If you're looking for which can have a relation or appear suitable if we're to round off sufficiently, **3.375** would be closest resolution which rounds closer for major decimal expression but does not express 338's direct division as interpreted through common understanding or mathematical assertion on upright position unless specified divisor.
