We're dividing 8431 by 10 
We want to figure out the number of times 8431 can be divided by 10.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 10, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 84 / 10

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 84 by 10, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 80 from 84 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 43 / 10

Going ahead to step 3:
43 divided by 10 is 4 with a remainder of 3.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 84.0
If we subtract 40 from 43, we get 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 10

Moving on to step 4:
31 divided by 10 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 843.0
Subtracting 30 from 31 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 5:
When dividing 10 by 10, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 843.1
Deduct 10 from 10 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 6:
10 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 843.1
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
10 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 843.1
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 843.1 with a balance of 0.0.
