We look at the division of 987204 by 39 
We want to figure out the number of times 987204 can be divided by 39.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 39 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 39

On to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 39, we get 2 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 78 away from 98, we end up with 20.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 207 / 39

Let's proceed to step 3:
39 goes into 207 5 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we subtract 195 from 207, we get 12.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 122 / 39

Moving on to step 4:
The number 39 fits into 122 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 253.0
If we take 117 away from 122, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 39

Going ahead to step 5:
50 divided by 39 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2531.0
If we take 39 away from 50, we end up with 11.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 114 / 39

Step 6:
When dividing 114 by 39, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25312.0
If we subtract 78 from 114, we 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 360 by 39, we get 9 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25312.9
If we subtract 351 from 360, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 90 by 39, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 25312.92
Deduct 78 from 90 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 39, we get 3 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 25312.923
Deduct 117 from 120 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 39 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 25312.923
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
39 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25312.92307
Deduct 273 from 300 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 39 fits into 270 6 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25312.923076
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 234 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
360 divided by 39 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25312.9230769
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 351 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 39 fits into 90 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25312.92307692
Subtracting 78 from 90 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 25312.92307692 with a balance of 1.2e-08.
