We're dividing 524265 by 31 
Our goal is to divide 524265 by 31.

Step 1:
31 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 31

On to step 2:
If we divide 52 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 21.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 31 from 52 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 31 fits into 214 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 186 from 214 to get 28.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 282 / 31

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 31 fits into 282 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 169.0
Subtract 279 from 282 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 36 / 31

Step 5:
31 can be fit into 36 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1691.0
If we take 31 away from 36, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
31 can be fit into 55 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16911.0
Subtracting 31 from 55 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 31 fits into 240 7 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16911.7
Subtracting 217 from 240 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
31 can be fit into 230 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16911.77
If we subtract 217 from 230, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16911.77 with a balance of 0.013.
