36990961 ÷ 988 
We want to figure out the number of times 36990961 can be divided by 988.

Advancing to step 1:
988 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 988

Advancing to step 2:
36 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 36, we get 36.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 369 / 988

Step 3:
988 can be fit into 369 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 369.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 369, we get 369.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 369 and continue with: 3699 / 988

Moving on to step 4:
988 can be fit into 3699 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 735.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 2964 from 3699 and we're left with 735.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 735 and continue: 7350 / 988

Advancing to step 5:
7350 divided by 988 is 7 with a remainder of 434.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we subtract 6916 from 7350, we get 434.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 434, then carry on: 4349 / 988

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 4349 by 988, we get 4 and a remainder of 397.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 374.0
The remainder is 397 after subtracting 3952 from 4349.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 397 and repeat the process: 3976 / 988

Step 7:
988 goes into 3976 4 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3744.0
Subtract 3952 from 3976 to get 24.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 241 / 988

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 241 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 241.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37440.0
Subtracting 0 from 241 leaves us with 241.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
988 goes into 2410 2 times with a remainder of 434.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37440.2
Deduct 1976 from 2410 and we're left with 434.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
988 goes into 4340 4 times with a remainder of 388.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 37440.24
If we take 3952 away from 4340, we end up with 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
988 goes into 3880 3 times with a remainder of 916.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37440.243
If we subtract 2964 from 3880, we get 916.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 9160 by 988, we get 9 and a remainder of 268.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37440.2439
Subtract 8892 from 9160 to get 268.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
2680 divided by 988 is 2 with a remainder of 704.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37440.24392
The remainder is 704 after subtracting 1976 from 2680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Step 14:
7040 divided by 988 is 7 with a remainder of 124.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37440.243927
Deduct 6916 from 7040 and we're left with 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
988 can be fit into 1240 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 252.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37440.2439271
The remainder is 252 after subtracting 988 from 1240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
The number 988 fits into 2520 2 times, leaving a remainder of 544.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37440.24392712
If we take 1976 away from 2520, we end up with 544.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5440, and continue the process.

The final result is 37440.24392712 with a remainder of 5.44e-07.
