978609 divided by 36 
Let's see how many times 36 fits into 978609.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 36, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 36

Advancing to step 2:
36 can be fit into 97 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 72 from 97.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 258 / 36

On to step 3:
When dividing 258 by 36, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 252 from 258.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 66 / 36

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 66 by 36, we get 1 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 271.0
Subtracting 36 from 66 leaves us with 30.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 300 / 36

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 300 by 36, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2718.0
If we take 288 away from 300, we end up with 12.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 129 / 36

Moving on to step 6:
The number 36 fits into 129 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27183.0
Subtracting 108 from 129 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
36 goes into 210 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27183.5
If we take 180 away from 210, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 36 fits into 300 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27183.58
Subtract 288 from 300 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
36 can be fit into 120 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27183.583
Subtracting 108 from 120 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
36 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 27183.5833
Deduct 108 from 120 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 27183.5833 with a remaining 0.00012.
