Let's divide 61544 by 36
Our goal is to divide 61544 by 36.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 36 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 61 / 36

On to step 2:
61 divided by 36 is 1 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 36 from 61 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 255 / 36

On to step 3:
36 goes into 255 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 252 from 255.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 36

Step 4:
The number 36 fits into 34 0 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 170.0
If we subtract 0 from 34, we get 34.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 344 / 36

On to step 5:
344 divided by 36 is 9 with a remainder of 20.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1709.0
Deduct 324 from 344 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
The number 36 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1709.5
If we subtract 180 from 200, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 200 by 36, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1709.55
Subtract 180 from 200 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1709.55 with a remaining 0.02.
