We divide 499478 by 39
Let's see how many times 39 fits into 499478.

Advancing to step 1:
39 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 39

Step 2:
39 can be fit into 49 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 39 away from 49, we end up with 10.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 109 / 39

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 109 by 39, we get 2 with a remainder of 31.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 78 away from 109, we end up with 31.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 314 / 39

Step 4:
39 can be fit into 314 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 128.0
Subtracting 312 from 314 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 39

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 27 by 39, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1280.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 278 / 39

Moving on to step 6:
278 divided by 39 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12807.0
If we subtract 273 from 278, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 39 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12807.1
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 39 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
110 divided by 39 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12807.12
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 78 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
39 goes into 320 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12807.128
Subtract 312 from 320 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 39, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12807.1282
If we take 78 away from 80, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 39 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12807.1282
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 200 by 39, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12807.128205
If we subtract 195 from 200, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
39 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12807.1282051
Deduct 39 from 50 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
39 goes into 110 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12807.12820512
If we subtract 78 from 110, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 12807.12820512, with a leftover of 3.2e-08.
