We're dividing 31949553 by 977 
Our goal is to divide 31949553 by 977.

Advancing to step 1:
977 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 977

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 977 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 319 / 977

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 319 by 977, we get 0 with a remainder of 319.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 319 to get 319.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 319 and repeat the process: 3194 / 977

Advancing to step 4:
The number 977 fits into 3194 3 times, leaving a remainder of 263.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 2931 from 3194 and we're left with 263.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 263 and continue: 2639 / 977

Advancing to step 5:
977 goes into 2639 2 times with a remainder of 685.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32.0
The remainder is 685 after subtracting 1954 from 2639.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 685, then repeat: 6855 / 977

Going ahead to step 6:
977 goes into 6855 7 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 327.0
Subtract 6839 from 6855 to get 16.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 165 / 977

Advancing to step 7:
977 goes into 165 0 times with a remainder of 165.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3270.0
If we subtract 0 from 165, we get 165.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 165 and repeat the process: 1653 / 977

Step 8:
977 can be fit into 1653 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 676.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32701.0
If we take 977 away from 1653, we end up with 676.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 6760 by 977, we get 6 with a remainder of 898.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32701.6
The remainder is 898 after subtracting 5862 from 6760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8980, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 977 fits into 8980 9 times, leaving a remainder of 187.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32701.69
If we take 8793 away from 8980, we end up with 187.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1870, and continue the process.

Step 11:
977 goes into 1870 1 times with a remainder of 893.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32701.691
If we subtract 977 from 1870, we get 893.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8930, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 8930 by 977, we get 9 with a remainder of 137.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32701.6919
If we take 8793 away from 8930, we end up with 137.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
1370 divided by 977 is 1 with a remainder of 393.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32701.69191
Deduct 977 from 1370 and we're left with 393.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3930, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 3930 by 977, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32701.691914
If we subtract 3908 from 3930, we 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 15:
977 goes into 220 0 times with a remainder of 220.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32701.691914
The remainder is 220 after subtracting 0 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 2200 by 977, we get 2 and a remainder of 246.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32701.69191402
The remainder is 246 after subtracting 1954 from 2200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

The final result is 32701.69191402 with a remainder of 2.46e-07.
