We're dividing 31572337 by 854 
Our goal is to divide 31572337 by 854.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 854, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 854

Going ahead to step 2:
854 goes into 31 0 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 315 / 854

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 315 by 854, we get 0 and a remainder of 315.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 315 leaves us with 315.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 315 and continue with: 3157 / 854

On to step 4:
854 goes into 3157 3 times with a remainder of 595.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 595 after subtracting 2562 from 3157.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 595 and continue: 5952 / 854

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 5952 by 854, we get 6 with a remainder of 828.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtract 5124 from 5952 to get 828.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 828 and continue: 8283 / 854

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 854 fits into 8283 9 times, leaving a remainder of 597.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 369.0
Deduct 7686 from 8283 and we're left with 597.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 597, then repeat: 5973 / 854

Advancing to step 7:
5973 divided by 854 is 6 with a remainder of 849.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3696.0
If we take 5124 away from 5973, we end up with 849.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 849 and continue: 8497 / 854

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 8497 by 854, we get 9 and a remainder of 811.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36969.0
The remainder is 811 after subtracting 7686 from 8497.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
8110 divided by 854 is 9 with a remainder of 424.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 36969.9
The remainder is 424 after subtracting 7686 from 8110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
854 goes into 4240 4 times with a remainder of 824.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36969.94
Deduct 3416 from 4240 and we're left with 824.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 8240 by 854, we get 9 and a remainder of 554.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36969.949
Subtract 7686 from 8240 to get 554.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5540, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
854 can be fit into 5540 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 416.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36969.9496
The remainder is 416 after subtracting 5124 from 5540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
4160 divided by 854 is 4 with a remainder of 744.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 36969.94964
If we subtract 3416 from 4160, we get 744.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7440, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 854 fits into 7440 8 times, leaving a remainder of 608.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 36969.949648
Deduct 6832 from 7440 and we're left with 608.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6080, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
854 can be fit into 6080 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 102.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36969.9496487
Subtract 5978 from 6080 to get 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
The number 854 fits into 1020 1 times, leaving a remainder of 166.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36969.94964871
Subtract 854 from 1020 to get 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 36969.94964871 with a balance of 1.66e-07.
