728981 divided by 39 
We want to divide 728981 by 39.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 39, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 39

Step 2:
39 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 39 from 72 and we're left with 33.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 338 / 39

Step 3:
If we divide 338 by 39, we get 8 and a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 312 from 338, we get 26.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 269 / 39

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 269 by 39, we get 6 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 186.0
If we subtract 234 from 269, we get 35.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 39

Going ahead to step 5:
39 can be fit into 358 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1869.0
If we subtract 351 from 358, we get 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 39

On to step 6:
71 divided by 39 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18691.0
Subtract 39 from 71 to 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.

Step 7:
The number 39 fits into 320 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18691.8
If we subtract 312 from 320, we 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 39, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18691.82
Subtracting 78 from 80 leaves us 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 9:
20 divided by 39 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18691.82
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
39 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18691.8205
Subtracting 195 from 200 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 39 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18691.82051
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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 110 by 39, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18691.820512
Subtracting 78 from 110 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 39 fits into 320 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18691.8205128
If we take 312 away from 320, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 80 by 39, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18691.82051282
Subtract 78 from 80 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 18691.82051282 with a remaining 2e-09.
