We divide 539488 by 13
Our goal is to divide 539488 by 13.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 13 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 53 / 13

Step 2:
The number 13 fits into 53 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 52 from 53.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 13

Moving on to step 3:
19 divided by 13 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we take 13 away from 19, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 64 / 13

Let's proceed to step 4:
13 can be fit into 64 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 414.0
If we subtract 52 from 64, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 128 / 13

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 128 by 13, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4149.0
If we subtract 117 from 128, we get 11.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 118 / 13

Advancing to step 6:
118 divided by 13 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41499.0
If we take 117 away from 118, 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.

On to step 7:
13 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41499.0
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 8:
13 can be fit into 100 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 41499.07
Subtract 91 from 100 to 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.

On to step 9:
90 divided by 13 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41499.076
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
120 divided by 13 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41499.0769
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
13 can be fit into 30 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 41499.07692
Deduct 26 from 30 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 13 fits into 40 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41499.076923
Subtracting 39 from 40 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 13 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 41499.076923
If we take 0 away from 10, 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.

On to step 14:
The number 13 fits into 100 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41499.07692307
Deduct 91 from 100 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

The final result is 41499.07692307 with a remainder of 9e-09.
