We're dividing 971288 by 36 
We want to divide 971288 by 36.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 36, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 36

Advancing to step 2:
36 goes into 97 2 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 72 from 97 leaves us with 25.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 251 / 36

Step 3:
36 goes into 251 6 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
Deduct 216 from 251 and we're left with 35.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 352 / 36

Step 4:
If we divide 352 by 36, we get 9 and a remainder of 28.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 269.0
If we subtract 324 from 352, we get 28.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 288 / 36

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 288 by 36, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2698.0
If we subtract 288 from 288, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 36

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 8 by 36, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 26980.0
Subtract 0 from 8 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.

Advancing to step 7:
80 divided by 36 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26980.2
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 80 by 36, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26980.22
If we subtract 72 from 80, we 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.

The final result is 26980.22 with a remainder of 0.008.
