873668 ÷ 31 
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 873668.

Let's proceed to step 1:
31 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 25.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 62 away from 87, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 253 / 31

Step 3:
31 can be fit into 253 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 248 from 253, we get 5.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 56 / 31

Step 4:
31 can be fit into 56 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 281.0
If we take 31 away from 56, we end up with 25.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 256 / 31

On to step 5:
If we divide 256 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2818.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 248 from 256.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 31

On to step 6:
88 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 26.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28182.0
If we subtract 62 from 88, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
31 goes into 260 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28182.8
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 248 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 31 fits into 120 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28182.83
If we take 93 away from 120, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 270 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28182.838
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 248 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
31 can be fit into 220 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28182.8387
If we subtract 217 from 220, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 31 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28182.8387
If we subtract 0 from 30, we 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 12:
31 goes into 300 9 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28182.838709
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 279 from 300.
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 13:
31 goes into 210 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 28182.8387096
If we subtract 186 from 210, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 240 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28182.83870967
If we take 217 away from 240, we end up 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.

Our division results in 28182.83870967 with a remaining 2.3e-08.
