We look at the division of 488722 by 36 
We want to divide 488722 by 36.

Let's proceed to step 1:
36 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 36

Moving on to step 2:
The number 36 fits into 48 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 36 from 48 and we're left with 12.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 128 / 36

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 128 by 36, we get 3 with a remainder of 20.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtracting 108 from 128 leaves us with 20.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 207 / 36

On to step 4:
207 divided by 36 is 5 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 135.0
Subtracting 180 from 207 leaves us with 27.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 272 / 36

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 272 by 36, we get 7 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1357.0
Deduct 252 from 272 and we're left with 20.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 202 / 36

On to step 6:
The number 36 fits into 202 5 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13575.0
Deduct 180 from 202 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
36 goes into 220 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13575.6
Deduct 216 from 220 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.

Step 8:
The number 36 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13575.61
Subtracting 36 from 40 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 36, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13575.611
If we subtract 36 from 40, 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.

The final outcome is 13575.611, with a leftover of 0.0004.
