We're dividing 36972980 by 969 
We want to divide 36972980 by 969.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 969, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 36 / 969

Going ahead to step 2:
969 goes into 36 0 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 369 / 969

Step 3:
If we divide 369 by 969, we get 0 and a remainder of 369.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 369 to get 369.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 369 and continue with: 3697 / 969

Moving on to step 4:
969 goes into 3697 3 times with a remainder of 790.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 2907 from 3697 leaves us with 790.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 790, then carry on: 7902 / 969

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 7902 by 969, we get 8 with a remainder of 150.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38.0
Subtract 7752 from 7902 to get 150.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 150 and continue with: 1509 / 969

On to step 6:
If we divide 1509 by 969, we get 1 and a remainder of 540.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 381.0
If we take 969 away from 1509, we end up with 540.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 540, then repeat: 5408 / 969

Step 7:
When dividing 5408 by 969, we get 5 with a remainder of 563.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3815.0
The remainder is 563 after subtracting 4845 from 5408.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 563, then repeat: 5630 / 969

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 5630 by 969, we get 5 with a remainder of 785.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38155.0
Deduct 4845 from 5630 and we're left with 785.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7850, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 7850 by 969, we get 8 and a remainder of 98.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38155.8
Subtract 7752 from 7850 to get 98.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 980, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 969 fits into 980 1 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38155.81
Deduct 969 from 980 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 110 by 969, we get 0 and a remainder of 110.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38155.81
Subtracting 0 from 110 leaves us with 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
969 can be fit into 1100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 131.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38155.8101
If we take 969 away from 1100, we end up with 131.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
969 can be fit into 1310 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 341.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 38155.81011
Subtract 969 from 1310 to get 341.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3410, and continue the process.

Our division results in 38155.81011 with a remaining 0.000341.
