985978 divided by 36 
Let's see how many times 36 fits into 985978.

Going ahead to step 1:
9 divided by 36 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 36

Going ahead to step 2:
98 divided by 36 is 2 with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 72 from 98, we get 26.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 265 / 36

On to step 3:
265 divided by 36 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 252 from 265 leaves us with 13.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 139 / 36

On to step 4:
The number 36 fits into 139 3 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 273.0
If we subtract 108 from 139, we get 31.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 317 / 36

On to step 5:
The number 36 fits into 317 8 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2738.0
Subtract 288 from 317 to get 29.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 36

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 298 by 36, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27388.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 288 from 298.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 100 by 36, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27388.2
Subtract 72 from 100 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 36, we get 7 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27388.27
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 252 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 280 by 36, we get 7 with a remainder of 28.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27388.277
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 252 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 27388.277, with a leftover of 0.0028.
