36988 ÷ 7 
We want to divide 36988 by 7.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 7 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 7

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 36 by 7, we get 5 with a remainder of 1.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 35 away from 36, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 7

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 19 by 7, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 52.0
Subtract 14 from 19 to get 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 7

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 58 by 7, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 528.0
Deduct 56 from 58 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 7

Let's proceed to step 5:
28 divided by 7 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5284.0
If we subtract 28 from 28, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 0 by 7, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5284.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 7, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5284.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5284.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
