We divide 501697 by 39
Our goal is to divide 501697 by 39.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 divided by 39 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 39

Moving on to step 2:
50 divided by 39 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 39 from 50 leaves us with 11.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 111 / 39

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 39 fits into 111 2 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 78 from 111.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 336 / 39

On to step 4:
39 can be fit into 336 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 128.0
Deduct 312 from 336 and we're left with 24.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 249 / 39

Step 5:
39 goes into 249 6 times with a remainder of 15.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1286.0
Subtract 234 from 249 to get 15.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 157 / 39

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 39 fits into 157 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12864.0
If we take 156 away from 157, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 39, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12864.0
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
39 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12864.02
Subtracting 78 from 100 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
39 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12864.025
Subtracting 195 from 220 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 250 by 39, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12864.0256
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 234 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 39 fits into 160 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12864.02564
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 39 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12864.025641
If we subtract 39 from 40, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 10 by 39, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12864.025641
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
100 divided by 39 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12864.02564102
Subtracting 78 from 100 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12864.02564102 with a remaining 2.2e-08.
