We look at the division of 35797141 by 988 
We're looking to find how many times 988 goes into 35797141.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 988, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 988

Step 2:
If we divide 35 by 988, we get 0 and a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 35 leaves us with 35.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 357 / 988

Step 3:
If we divide 357 by 988, we get 0 and a remainder of 357.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 357, we end up with 357.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 357 and continue: 3579 / 988

Let's proceed to step 4:
3579 divided by 988 is 3 with a remainder of 615.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 2964 from 3579 leaves us with 615.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 615 and continue with: 6157 / 988

Going ahead to step 5:
6157 divided by 988 is 6 with a remainder of 229.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtract 5928 from 6157 to get 229.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 229 and repeat the process: 2291 / 988

Advancing to step 6:
2291 divided by 988 is 2 with a remainder of 315.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 362.0
If we subtract 1976 from 2291, we get 315.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 315 and continue with: 3154 / 988

Moving on to step 7:
988 can be fit into 3154 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 190.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3623.0
Deduct 2964 from 3154 and we're left with 190.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 190 and continue with: 1901 / 988

Advancing to step 8:
988 can be fit into 1901 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 913.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 36231.0
Subtracting 988 from 1901 leaves us with 913.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9130, and continue the process.

Step 9:
988 can be fit into 9130 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 238.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36231.9
Subtracting 8892 from 9130 leaves us with 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
988 goes into 2380 2 times with a remainder of 404.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36231.92
Subtract 1976 from 2380 to get 404.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 4040 by 988, we get 4 and a remainder of 88.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36231.924
Deduct 3952 from 4040 and we're left with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
880 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 880.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36231.924
Subtracting 0 from 880 leaves us with 880.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 988 fits into 8800 8 times, leaving a remainder of 896.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36231.92408
The remainder is 896 after subtracting 7904 from 8800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
8960 divided by 988 is 9 with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 36231.924089
If we subtract 8892 from 8960, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 15:
When dividing 680 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 680.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36231.924089
The remainder is 680 after subtracting 0 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

Step 16:
988 goes into 6800 6 times with a remainder of 872.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36231.92408906
If we take 5928 away from 6800, we end up with 872.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8720, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 36231.92408906 with a balance of 8.72e-07.
