Let's divide 285431 by 33
We want to divide 285431 by 33.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 33 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 33

Moving on to step 2:
33 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 285 / 33

Step 3:
When dividing 285 by 33, we get 8 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 264 from 285, we get 21.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 214 / 33

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 214 by 33, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86.0
If we subtract 198 from 214, we get 16.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 163 / 33

Going ahead to step 5:
163 divided by 33 is 4 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 864.0
Deduct 132 from 163 and we're left with 31.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 33

Advancing to step 6:
311 divided by 33 is 9 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8649.0
Subtracting 297 from 311 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 140 by 33, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8649.4
If we subtract 132 from 140, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
80 divided by 33 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8649.42
Deduct 66 from 80 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 140 by 33, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8649.424
Subtracting 132 from 140 leaves us 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.

On to step 10:
33 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8649.4242
If we take 66 away from 80, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
140 divided by 33 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8649.42424
Subtract 132 from 140 to get 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 12:
33 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8649.424242
Subtracting 66 from 80 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
33 can be fit into 140 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8649.4242424
Subtract 132 from 140 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
33 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8649.42424242
If we subtract 66 from 80, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8649.42424242, and the remainder is 1.4e-08.
