Let's divide 873494 by 36
We want to divide 873494 by 36.

On to step 1:
36 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 36

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 36, we get 2 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 72 from 87.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 153 / 36

On to step 3:
When dividing 153 by 36, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 144 from 153 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 94 / 36

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 94 by 36, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242.0
Subtract 72 from 94 to get 22.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 229 / 36

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 229 by 36, we get 6 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2426.0
If we take 216 away from 229, we end up with 13.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 134 / 36

Step 6:
When dividing 134 by 36, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24263.0
Deduct 108 from 134 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 36 fits into 260 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 24263.7
If we take 252 away from 260, 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
36 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 24263.72
Subtract 72 from 80 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.

Step 9:
36 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 24263.722
Subtract 72 from 80 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.

After the division, we end up with 24263.722 and a remainder of 0.0008.
