Let's divide 31917275 by 187
Our goal is to divide 31917275 by 187.

Let's proceed to step 1:
187 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 187

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 187 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 319 / 187

Advancing to step 3:
319 divided by 187 is 1 with a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 187 away from 319, we end up with 132.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 132 and continue: 1321 / 187

Going ahead to step 4:
187 can be fit into 1321 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 1309 from 1321, we get 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 187

On to step 5:
187 goes into 127 0 times with a remainder of 127.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 170.0
Subtract 0 from 127 to get 127.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 127 and repeat the process: 1272 / 187

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 1272 by 187, we get 6 and a remainder of 150.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1706.0
Deduct 1122 from 1272 and we're left with 150.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 150 and continue with: 1507 / 187

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 187 fits into 1507 8 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17068.0
Subtracting 1496 from 1507 leaves us with 11.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 115 / 187

Step 8:
187 goes into 115 0 times with a remainder of 115.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170680.0
Deduct 0 from 115 and we're left with 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
187 goes into 1150 6 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170680.6
If we take 1122 away from 1150, 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 10:
187 goes into 280 1 times with a remainder of 93.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170680.61
The remainder is 93 after subtracting 187 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 187 fits into 930 4 times, leaving a remainder of 182.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170680.614
Subtract 748 from 930 to get 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
1820 divided by 187 is 9 with a remainder of 137.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 170680.6149
Subtract 1683 from 1820 to get 137.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 1370 by 187, we get 7 with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170680.61497
Deduct 1309 from 1370 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 610 by 187, we get 3 with a remainder of 49.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170680.614973
Subtract 561 from 610 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
187 goes into 490 2 times with a remainder of 116.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 170680.6149732
Subtract 374 from 490 to get 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
187 can be fit into 1160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170680.61497326
If we take 1122 away from 1160, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 170680.61497326 with a balance of 3.8e-08.
