We're dividing 115879 by 39 
We're looking to find how many times 39 goes into 115879.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 39 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 39

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 11 by 39, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 115 / 39

On to step 3:
If we divide 115 by 39, we get 2 and a remainder of 37.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 78 from 115.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 39

Advancing to step 4:
378 divided by 39 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 351 from 378 and we're left with 27.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 277 / 39

On to step 5:
If we divide 277 by 39, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 297.0
Subtracting 273 from 277 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 39

On to step 6:
When dividing 49 by 39, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2971.0
If we take 39 away from 49, we end up with 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 7:
The number 39 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2971.2
If we take 78 away from 100, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
If we divide 220 by 39, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2971.25
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 195 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 9:
39 goes into 250 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2971.256
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 10:
160 divided by 39 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2971.2564
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 156 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
39 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2971.25641
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.

Moving on to step 12:
39 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2971.25641
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 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 13:
The number 39 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2971.2564102
If we subtract 78 from 100, we 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 14:
39 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2971.25641025
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 195 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2971.25641025 with a balance of 2.5e-08.
