Let's divide 35979848 by 846
We want to divide 35979848 by 846.

Step 1:
The number 846 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 846

Going ahead to step 2:
35 divided by 846 is 0 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 35 and we're left with 35.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 359 / 846

Moving on to step 3:
359 divided by 846 is 0 with a remainder of 359.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 359, we end up with 359.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 359 and continue: 3597 / 846

Going ahead to step 4:
846 goes into 3597 4 times with a remainder of 213.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 3384 away from 3597, we end up with 213.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 213, then carry on: 2139 / 846

Going ahead to step 5:
846 can be fit into 2139 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 447.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtract 1692 from 2139 to get 447.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 447 and continue with: 4478 / 846

Step 6:
If we divide 4478 by 846, we get 5 and a remainder of 248.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 425.0
Deduct 4230 from 4478 and we're left with 248.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 248 and continue with: 2484 / 846

Step 7:
When dividing 2484 by 846, we get 2 with a remainder of 792.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4252.0
If we take 1692 away from 2484, we end up with 792.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 792, then repeat: 7928 / 846

On to step 8:
The number 846 fits into 7928 9 times, leaving a remainder of 314.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42529.0
If we take 7614 away from 7928, we end up with 314.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
3140 divided by 846 is 3 with a remainder of 602.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42529.3
The remainder is 602 after subtracting 2538 from 3140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6020, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 6020 by 846, we get 7 and a remainder of 98.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42529.37
If we take 5922 away from 6020, we end up with 98.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 980, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 980 by 846, we get 1 with a remainder of 134.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 42529.371
If we take 846 away from 980, we end up with 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 846 fits into 1340 1 times, leaving a remainder of 494.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42529.3711
If we subtract 846 from 1340, we get 494.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4940, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 42529.3711, with a leftover of 0.00494.
