We're dividing 431500 by 71 
We want to divide 431500 by 71.

Moving on to step 1:
71 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 43 / 71

Moving on to step 2:
71 goes into 43 0 times with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 43 and we're left with 43.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 431 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
71 goes into 431 6 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 426 away from 431, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 71

On to step 4:
The number 71 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 550 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 550 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 53.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 607.0
Deduct 497 from 550 and we're left with 53.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 530 / 71

Going ahead to step 6:
530 divided by 71 is 7 with a remainder of 33.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6077.0
If we subtract 497 from 530, we get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 71 fits into 330 4 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6077.4
If we subtract 284 from 330, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
460 divided by 71 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6077.46
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 426 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
71 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6077.464
Subtract 284 from 340 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 10:
71 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6077.4647
If we subtract 497 from 560, we get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
71 goes into 630 8 times with a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6077.46478
Subtracting 568 from 630 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
71 goes into 620 8 times with a remainder of 52.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6077.464788
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 568 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6077.464788, with a leftover of 5.2e-06.
