We're dividing 35998 by 18 
Let's see how many times 18 fits into 35998.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 18, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 35 / 18

Step 2:
The number 18 fits into 35 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 18 from 35 to get 17.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 179 / 18

Going ahead to step 3:
18 can be fit into 179 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Deduct 162 from 179 and we're left with 17.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 179 / 18

Going ahead to step 4:
18 can be fit into 179 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 199.0
Subtracting 162 from 179 leaves us with 17.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 178 / 18

Step 5:
When dividing 178 by 18, we get 9 with a remainder of 16.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1999.0
Deduct 162 from 178 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
18 can be fit into 160 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1999.8
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 160 by 18, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1999.88
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1999.88 with a balance of 0.016.
