22981 ÷ 36 
We want to figure out the number of times 22981 can be divided by 36.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 36, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 22 / 36

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 22 by 36, we get 0 with a remainder of 22.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 22 and we're left with 22.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 229 / 36

Let's proceed to step 3:
36 can be fit into 229 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 216 from 229, we get 13.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 138 / 36

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 36 fits into 138 3 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63.0
Subtract 108 from 138 to get 30.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 301 / 36

Step 5:
When dividing 301 by 36, we get 8 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 638.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 288 from 301.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
130 divided by 36 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 638.3
Subtract 108 from 130 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
36 goes into 220 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 638.36
If we subtract 216 from 220, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
40 divided by 36 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 638.361
Subtract 36 from 40 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
36 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 638.3611
Deduct 36 from 40 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 638.3611 with a remaining 4e-05.
