42157 divided by 36 
We want to figure out the number of times 42157 can be divided by 36.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 36 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 36

Advancing to step 2:
36 goes into 42 1 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 36 from 42 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 61 / 36

Step 3:
36 goes into 61 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 36 from 61 and we're left with 25.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 255 / 36

On to step 4:
If we divide 255 by 36, we get 7 and a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 117.0
Deduct 252 from 255 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 36

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 37 by 36, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1171.0
If we take 36 away from 37, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 36 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1171.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 36 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1171.02
Subtracting 72 from 100 leaves us with 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:
When dividing 280 by 36, we get 7 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1171.027
Deduct 252 from 280 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
36 goes into 280 7 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1171.0277
Deduct 252 from 280 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1171.0277, and the remainder is 0.00028.
