We look at the division of 31284421 by 709 
We want to figure out the number of times 31284421 can be divided by 709.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 709, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 709

Advancing to step 2:
709 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 312 / 709

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 709 fits into 312 0 times, leaving a remainder of 312.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 312, we end up with 312.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 312, then carry on: 3128 / 709

On to step 4:
709 goes into 3128 4 times with a remainder of 292.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 292 after subtracting 2836 from 3128.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 292 and repeat the process: 2924 / 709

Let's proceed to step 5:
709 goes into 2924 4 times with a remainder of 88.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44.0
Subtract 2836 from 2924 to get 88.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 88 and continue: 884 / 709

Advancing to step 6:
709 goes into 884 1 times with a remainder of 175.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 441.0
If we take 709 away from 884, we end up with 175.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 175 and repeat the process: 1752 / 709

On to step 7:
1752 divided by 709 is 2 with a remainder of 334.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4412.0
Deduct 1418 from 1752 and we're left with 334.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 334, then repeat: 3341 / 709

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 3341 by 709, we get 4 and a remainder of 505.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44124.0
If we take 2836 away from 3341, we end up with 505.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5050, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 5050 by 709, we get 7 and a remainder of 87.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44124.7
Subtracting 4963 from 5050 leaves us with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 709 fits into 870 1 times, leaving a remainder of 161.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44124.71
The remainder is 161 after subtracting 709 from 870.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
709 goes into 1610 2 times with a remainder of 192.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44124.712
Subtract 1418 from 1610 to get 192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 709 fits into 1920 2 times, leaving a remainder of 502.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44124.7122
If we take 1418 away from 1920, we end up with 502.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5020, and continue the process.

Our division results in 44124.7122 with a remaining 0.00502.
