We're dividing 608859 by 39 
We want to divide 608859 by 39.

On to step 1:
6 divided by 39 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 60 / 39

Going ahead to step 2:
39 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 39 from 60 to get 21.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 218 / 39

On to step 3:
The number 39 fits into 218 5 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 195 away from 218, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 238 / 39

Advancing to step 4:
39 goes into 238 6 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 156.0
Deduct 234 from 238 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 39

Advancing to step 5:
39 goes into 45 1 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1561.0
If we take 39 away from 45, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 39

Going ahead to step 6:
39 can be fit into 69 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15611.0
Deduct 39 from 69 and we're left 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 7:
39 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15611.7
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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 270 by 39, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15611.76
Subtract 234 from 270 to 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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 39, we get 9 with a remainder of 9.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15611.769
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.

Moving on to step 10:
39 can be fit into 90 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15611.7692
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
120 divided by 39 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15611.76923
If we take 117 away from 120, we end up 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.

On to step 12:
39 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15611.76923
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
The number 39 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15611.7692307
Subtracting 273 from 300 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 270 by 39, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15611.76923076
Deduct 234 from 270 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 15611.76923076 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
