281498 divided by 39 
We want to divide 281498 by 39.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 39 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 39

Let's proceed to step 2:
39 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 281 / 39

On to step 3:
39 goes into 281 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 273 from 281 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 84 / 39

Step 4:
84 divided by 39 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 72.0
If we take 78 away from 84, we end up with 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 39

Advancing to step 5:
69 divided by 39 is 1 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 721.0
Subtracting 39 from 69 leaves us with 30.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 308 / 39

Going ahead to step 6:
308 divided by 39 is 7 with a remainder of 35.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7217.0
If we take 273 away from 308, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
39 can be fit into 350 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7217.8
If we subtract 312 from 350, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
39 goes into 380 9 times with a remainder of 29.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7217.89
Deduct 351 from 380 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
39 goes into 290 7 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7217.897
Subtracting 273 from 290 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
39 goes into 170 4 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7217.8974
Subtract 156 from 170 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
39 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7217.89743
If we subtract 117 from 140, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
230 divided by 39 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 7217.897435
Deduct 195 from 230 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
39 can be fit into 350 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7217.8974358
Deduct 312 from 350 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 14:
39 goes into 380 9 times with a remainder of 29.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7217.89743589
Subtracting 351 from 380 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

The final result is 7217.89743589 with a remainder of 2.9e-08.
