Let's divide 521 by 36
Let's see how many times 36 fits into 521.

Step 1:
The number 36 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 36

On to step 2:
36 goes into 52 1 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 36 away from 52, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 161 / 36

Step 3:
If we divide 161 by 36, we get 4 and a remainder of 17.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 144 from 161 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 4:
36 goes into 170 4 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.4
Deduct 144 from 170 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 5:
260 divided by 36 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 14.47
Subtract 252 from 260 to get 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 6:
The number 36 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 14.472
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.

On to step 7:
36 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.4722
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.

The quotient of the division is 14.4722, and the remainder is 8e-05.
