We divide 36578517 by 870
Our goal is to divide 36578517 by 870.

On to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 870, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 36 / 870

Going ahead to step 2:
870 can be fit into 36 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 36, we get 36.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 365 / 870

On to step 3:
When dividing 365 by 870, we get 0 with a remainder of 365.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 365, we end up with 365.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 365, then carry on: 3657 / 870

Moving on to step 4:
870 goes into 3657 4 times with a remainder of 177.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 3480 from 3657 leaves us with 177.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 177, then repeat: 1778 / 870

Going ahead to step 5:
870 goes into 1778 2 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we take 1740 away from 1778, we end up with 38.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 385 / 870

Going ahead to step 6:
385 divided by 870 is 0 with a remainder of 385.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 420.0
If we take 0 away from 385, we end up with 385.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 385 and continue: 3851 / 870

Moving on to step 7:
3851 divided by 870 is 4 with a remainder of 371.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4204.0
If we take 3480 away from 3851, we end up with 371.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 371 and continue with: 3717 / 870

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 3717 by 870, we get 4 with a remainder of 237.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42044.0
Subtracting 3480 from 3717 leaves us with 237.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 870 fits into 2370 2 times, leaving a remainder of 630.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42044.2
Deduct 1740 from 2370 and we're left with 630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6300, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 6300 by 870, we get 7 and a remainder of 210.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42044.27
If we subtract 6090 from 6300, we get 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
870 can be fit into 2100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 360.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42044.272
If we take 1740 away from 2100, we end up with 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 3600 by 870, we get 4 with a remainder of 120.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 42044.2724
If we take 3480 away from 3600, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
870 goes into 1200 1 times with a remainder of 330.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42044.27241
Deduct 870 from 1200 and we're left with 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 3300 by 870, we get 3 with a remainder of 690.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 42044.272413
If we take 2610 away from 3300, we end up with 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
The number 870 fits into 6900 7 times, leaving a remainder of 810.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42044.2724137
Subtract 6090 from 6900 to get 810.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 8100 by 870, we get 9 and a remainder of 270.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42044.27241379
Subtract 7830 from 8100 to get 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 42044.27241379, and the remainder is 2.7e-07.
