305842 divided by 36 
We're looking to find how many times 36 goes into 305842.

On to step 1:
36 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 30 / 36

Step 2:
If we divide 30 by 36, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 305 / 36

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 305 by 36, we get 8 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 288 from 305 leaves us with 17.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 178 / 36

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 178 by 36, we get 4 and a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 84.0
Subtracting 144 from 178 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 344 / 36

Let's proceed to step 5:
36 goes into 344 9 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 849.0
Subtracting 324 from 344 leaves us with 20.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 202 / 36

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 202 by 36, we get 5 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8495.0
If we take 180 away from 202, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
220 divided by 36 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8495.6
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.

Step 8:
36 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8495.61
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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 36 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8495.611
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 8495.611 with a balance of 0.0004.
