Let's divide 481587 by 36
We want to figure out the number of times 481587 can be divided by 36.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 36, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 36

Step 2:
If we divide 48 by 36, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 36 from 48 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 121 / 36

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 121 by 36, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 108 away from 121, we end up with 13.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 135 / 36

On to step 4:
The number 36 fits into 135 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 133.0
If we subtract 108 from 135, we get 27.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 278 / 36

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 278 by 36, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1337.0
Subtracting 252 from 278 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 267 / 36

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 267 by 36, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13377.0
Subtract 252 from 267 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 150 by 36, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13377.4
Subtracting 144 from 150 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 8:
36 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13377.41
Subtracting 36 from 60 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 240 by 36, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13377.416
If we take 216 away from 240, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 240 by 36, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13377.4166
Deduct 216 from 240 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 13377.4166 and a remainder of 0.00024.
