52234 ÷ 31 
Our goal is to divide 52234 by 31.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 31

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 52 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 21.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 31 from 52.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 212 / 31

Step 3:
When dividing 212 by 31, we get 6 with a remainder of 26.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 186 from 212 and we're left with 26.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 263 / 31

On to step 4:
The number 31 fits into 263 8 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 168.0
If we take 248 away from 263, we end up with 15.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 154 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
31 goes into 154 4 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1684.0
Subtract 124 from 154 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
300 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1684.9
Subtracting 279 from 300 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
210 divided by 31 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1684.96
Deduct 186 from 210 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
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: 1684.967
Deduct 217 from 240 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
31 goes into 230 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1684.9677
If we take 217 away from 230, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

The final result is 1684.9677 with a remainder of 0.00013.
