We're dividing 885967 by 31 
We want to divide 885967 by 31.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 31 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 can be fit into 88 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 62 from 88 and we're left with 26.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 265 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
265 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 17.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 248 from 265.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 179 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 179 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 24.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 285.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 155 from 179.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 246 / 31

On to step 5:
If we divide 246 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2857.0
If we take 217 away from 246, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 297 / 31

Moving on to step 6:
31 goes into 297 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28579.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 279 from 297.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 31 fits into 180 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28579.5
If we subtract 155 from 180, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
250 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28579.58
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 248 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
31 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 28579.58
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 200 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28579.5806
Deduct 186 from 200 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 11:
When dividing 140 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28579.58064
Deduct 124 from 140 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
31 can be fit into 160 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28579.580645
If we subtract 155 from 160, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
50 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28579.5806451
If we subtract 31 from 50, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 31 fits into 190 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28579.58064516
Deduct 186 from 190 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 28579.58064516, with a leftover of 4e-09.
