Let's divide 36971 by 15
Our goal is to divide 36971 by 15.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 15, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 36 / 15

Going ahead to step 2:
36 divided by 15 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 30 from 36 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 69 / 15

Moving on to step 3:
The number 15 fits into 69 4 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 60 from 69.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 15

Moving on to step 4:
97 divided by 15 is 6 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 246.0
Subtract 90 from 97 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 15

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 71 by 15, we get 4 and a remainder of 11.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2464.0
Subtract 60 from 71 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
110 divided by 15 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2464.7
Subtract 105 from 110 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
15 goes into 50 3 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2464.73
If we take 45 away from 50, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 15 fits into 50 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2464.733
If we subtract 45 from 50, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2464.733 with a remaining 0.0005.
