496988 divided by 36 
Our goal is to divide 496988 by 36.

Step 1:
4 divided by 36 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 36

Let's proceed to step 2:
36 goes into 49 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 36 from 49.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 136 / 36

Advancing to step 3:
The number 36 fits into 136 3 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 108 away from 136, we end up with 28.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 289 / 36

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 289 by 36, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 138.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 288 from 289.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 36

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 18 by 36, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1380.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 188 / 36

On to step 6:
The number 36 fits into 188 5 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13805.0
Subtracting 180 from 188 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
36 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13805.2
Subtracting 72 from 80 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
36 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13805.22
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 13805.22 with a balance of 0.008.
