We look at the division of 31159962 by 503 
We're looking to find how many times 503 goes into 31159962.

Advancing to step 1:
3 divided by 503 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 503

Moving on to step 2:
31 divided by 503 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 31 to get 31.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 311 / 503

Moving on to step 3:
The number 503 fits into 311 0 times, leaving a remainder of 311.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 311, we end up with 311.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 311 and continue with: 3115 / 503

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 3115 by 503, we get 6 with a remainder of 97.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 3018 from 3115 leaves us with 97.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 97 and continue: 979 / 503

On to step 5:
503 can be fit into 979 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 476.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 61.0
Subtracting 503 from 979 leaves us with 476.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 476 and continue: 4769 / 503

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 4769 by 503, we get 9 and a remainder of 242.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 619.0
Subtracting 4527 from 4769 leaves us with 242.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 242 and continue with: 2426 / 503

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 2426 by 503, we get 4 with a remainder of 414.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6194.0
Subtract 2012 from 2426 to get 414.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 414 and continue: 4142 / 503

Advancing to step 8:
The number 503 fits into 4142 8 times, leaving a remainder of 118.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61948.0
Deduct 4024 from 4142 and we're left with 118.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
503 goes into 1180 2 times with a remainder of 174.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61948.2
Subtracting 1006 from 1180 leaves us with 174.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
1740 divided by 503 is 3 with a remainder of 231.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 61948.23
Subtracting 1509 from 1740 leaves us with 231.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 503 fits into 2310 4 times, leaving a remainder of 298.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 61948.234
If we subtract 2012 from 2310, we get 298.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2980, and continue the process.

Step 12:
503 can be fit into 2980 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 465.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 61948.2345
If we subtract 2515 from 2980, we get 465.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4650, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 4650 by 503, we get 9 and a remainder of 123.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 61948.23459
If we take 4527 away from 4650, we end up with 123.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1230, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 1230 by 503, we get 2 with a remainder of 224.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61948.234592
If we subtract 1006 from 1230, we get 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
503 goes into 2240 4 times with a remainder of 228.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61948.2345924
Subtracting 2012 from 2240 leaves us with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 2280 by 503, we get 4 and a remainder of 268.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61948.23459244
Subtracting 2012 from 2280 leaves us with 268.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2680, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 61948.23459244, with a leftover of 2.68e-07.
