36979799 ÷ 140 
We want to figure out the number of times 36979799 can be divided by 140.

Advancing to step 1:
140 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 36 / 140

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 36 by 140, we get 0 and a remainder of 36.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 36, we get 36.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 369 / 140

Advancing to step 3:
369 divided by 140 is 2 with a remainder of 89.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 280 from 369 and we're left with 89.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 89 and continue: 897 / 140

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 897 by 140, we get 6 with a remainder of 57.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 840 from 897.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 579 / 140

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 579 by 140, we get 4 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 264.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 560 from 579.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 197 / 140

Moving on to step 6:
140 can be fit into 197 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2641.0
If we take 140 away from 197, we end up with 57.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 579 / 140

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 579 by 140, we get 4 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26414.0
Subtracting 560 from 579 leaves us with 19.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 199 / 140

Going ahead to step 8:
140 can be fit into 199 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 264141.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 140 from 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 140 fits into 590 4 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 264141.4
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 560 from 590.
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 10:
When dividing 300 by 140, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 264141.42
Subtract 280 from 300 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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 200 by 140, we get 1 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 264141.421
Subtracting 140 from 200 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
600 divided by 140 is 4 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 264141.4214
If we subtract 560 from 600, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 400 by 140, we get 2 with a remainder of 120.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 264141.42142
The remainder is 120 after subtracting 280 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
140 can be fit into 1200 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 264141.421428
If we take 1120 away from 1200, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 800 by 140, we get 5 and a remainder of 100.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 264141.4214285
If we take 700 away from 800, we end up with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Step 16:
140 goes into 1000 7 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 264141.42142857
If we subtract 980 from 1000, 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 264141.42142857 with a balance of 2e-08.
