Let's divide 887286 by 31
We want to figure out the number of times 887286 can be divided by 31.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 31, we get 0 with 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.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 goes into 88 2 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 62 from 88, we get 26.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 267 / 31

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 267 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 248 from 267, we get 19.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 192 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
31 can be fit into 192 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 286.0
Subtract 186 from 192 to get 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 68 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2862.0
Subtracting 62 from 68 leaves us with 6.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 66 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 66 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28622.0
Subtract 62 from 66 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 40 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28622.1
Subtracting 31 from 40 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
31 goes into 90 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28622.12
If we take 62 away from 90, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
31 goes into 280 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28622.129
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 279 from 280.
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 10:
10 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28622.129
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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 31 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28622.12903
Subtracting 93 from 100 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
31 can be fit into 70 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28622.129032
Subtract 62 from 70 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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 31 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28622.1290322
Deduct 62 from 80 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 28622.1290322 and a remainder of 1.8e-07.
