Let's divide 36985738 by 285
We want to divide 36985738 by 285.

Advancing to step 1:
285 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 36 / 285

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 36 by 285, we get 0 and a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 369 / 285

Let's proceed to step 3:
369 divided by 285 is 1 with a remainder of 84.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 285 away from 369, we end up with 84.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 84 and repeat the process: 848 / 285

Step 4:
When dividing 848 by 285, we get 2 with a remainder of 278.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 570 from 848, we get 278.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 278, then repeat: 2785 / 285

On to step 5:
285 goes into 2785 9 times with a remainder of 220.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 129.0
The remainder is 220 after subtracting 2565 from 2785.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 220, then repeat: 2207 / 285

On to step 6:
285 goes into 2207 7 times with a remainder of 212.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1297.0
Subtract 1995 from 2207 to get 212.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 212 and continue: 2123 / 285

Going ahead to step 7:
2123 divided by 285 is 7 with a remainder of 128.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12977.0
If we take 1995 away from 2123, we end up with 128.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 128 and repeat the process: 1288 / 285

On to step 8:
285 can be fit into 1288 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 148.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 129774.0
Subtract 1140 from 1288 to get 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 1480 by 285, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 129774.5
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 1425 from 1480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 10:
285 goes into 550 1 times with a remainder of 265.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 129774.51
Deduct 285 from 550 and we're left with 265.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 2650 by 285, we get 9 with a remainder of 85.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 129774.519
If we subtract 2565 from 2650, we get 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
850 divided by 285 is 2 with a remainder of 280.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 129774.5192
If we subtract 570 from 850, we get 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 285 fits into 2800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 235.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 129774.51929
Deduct 2565 from 2800 and we're left with 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
2350 divided by 285 is 8 with a remainder of 70.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 129774.519298
If we subtract 2280 from 2350, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
700 divided by 285 is 2 with a remainder of 130.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 129774.5192982
Subtract 570 from 700 to get 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 1300 by 285, we get 4 and a remainder of 160.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 129774.51929824
The remainder is 160 after subtracting 1140 from 1300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 129774.51929824, and the remainder is 1.6e-07.
