We're dividing 40742429 by 36 
We're looking to find how many times 36 goes into 40742429.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 36, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 36

Step 2:
If we divide 40 by 36, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 36

Step 3:
47 divided by 36 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 36 away from 47, we end up with 11.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 114 / 36

Step 4:
114 divided by 36 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 113.0
If we take 108 away from 114, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 62 / 36

Going ahead to step 5:
62 divided by 36 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1131.0
Subtract 36 from 62 to get 26.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 264 / 36

On to step 6:
The number 36 fits into 264 7 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11317.0
If we take 252 away from 264, we end up with 12.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 122 / 36

Going ahead to step 7:
122 divided by 36 is 3 with a remainder of 14.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 113173.0
Deduct 108 from 122 and we're left with 14.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 149 / 36

On to step 8:
149 divided by 36 is 4 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1131734.0
If we take 144 away from 149, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
50 divided by 36 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1131734.1
Subtracting 36 from 50 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
36 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1131734.13
Deduct 108 from 140 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
320 divided by 36 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1131734.138
If we subtract 288 from 320, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
320 divided by 36 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1131734.1388
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1131734.1388, and the remainder is 0.00032.
