We're dividing 978938 by 36 
We want to figure out the number of times 978938 can be divided by 36.

Going ahead to step 1:
36 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 36

Step 2:
36 can be fit into 97 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 72 away from 97, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 258 / 36

On to step 3:
36 goes into 258 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we take 252 away from 258, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 69 / 36

On to step 4:
69 divided by 36 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 271.0
Subtract 36 from 69 to get 33.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 333 / 36

Going ahead to step 5:
333 divided by 36 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2719.0
Deduct 324 from 333 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 36

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 98 by 36, we get 2 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27192.0
Subtract 72 from 98 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
36 can be fit into 260 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27192.7
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
80 divided by 36 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27192.72
Subtracting 72 from 80 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
36 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 27192.722
Subtracting 72 from 80 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 27192.722 with a balance of 0.0008.
