We're dividing 96901 by 39 
We want to divide 96901 by 39.

On to step 1:
39 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 39

Step 2:
If we divide 96 by 39, we get 2 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 78 from 96 to get 18.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 189 / 39

Step 3:
39 goes into 189 4 times with a remainder of 33.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 156 away from 189, we end up with 33.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 330 / 39

Going ahead to step 4:
39 goes into 330 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 248.0
If we subtract 312 from 330, we get 18.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 181 / 39

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 181 by 39, we get 4 and a remainder of 25.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2484.0
Subtract 156 from 181 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
250 divided by 39 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2484.6
Subtracting 234 from 250 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.

Step 7:
160 divided by 39 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2484.64
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
40 divided by 39 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2484.641
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 39 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 9:
10 divided by 39 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2484.641
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
39 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2484.64102
Subtract 78 from 100 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 220 by 39, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2484.641025
If we take 195 away from 220, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
39 goes into 250 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2484.6410256
If we subtract 234 from 250, we 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 39, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2484.64102564
Subtracting 156 from 160 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2484.64102564 with a balance of 4e-09.
