We divide 178042 by 36
We want to figure out the number of times 178042 can be divided by 36.

Going ahead to step 1:
36 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 36

Step 2:
17 divided by 36 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 178 / 36

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 178 by 36, we get 4 and a remainder of 34.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 144 away from 178, we end up with 34.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 340 / 36

Step 4:
36 can be fit into 340 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we take 324 away from 340, we end up with 16.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 164 / 36

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 36 fits into 164 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 494.0
If we take 144 away from 164, we end up with 20.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 202 / 36

On to step 6:
When dividing 202 by 36, we get 5 with a remainder of 22.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4945.0
Subtract 180 from 202 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 36, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4945.6
Subtract 216 from 220 to 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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 36, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4945.61
If we take 36 away from 40, we end up 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 9:
36 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4945.611
Deduct 36 from 40 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 4945.611 with a balance of 0.0004.
