We look at the division of 272956 by 31 
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 272956.

Going ahead to step 1:
31 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 31

Moving on to step 2:
The number 31 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 272 / 31

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 272 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 248 from 272 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 249 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
249 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 88.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 248 from 249.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 31

On to step 5:
The number 31 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 880.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 156 / 31

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 156 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8805.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 155 from 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
31 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8805.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 100 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8805.03
Subtract 93 from 100 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 70 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8805.032
If we take 62 away from 70, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8805.0322
If we take 62 away from 80, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8805.0322, with a leftover of 0.00018.
