Let's divide 31427238 by 208
We want to divide 31427238 by 208.

On to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 208, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 208

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 208 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 314 / 208

Going ahead to step 3:
208 can be fit into 314 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 106.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 106 after subtracting 208 from 314.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 106, then repeat: 1062 / 208

Moving on to step 4:
208 can be fit into 1062 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 1040 from 1062 to get 22.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 227 / 208

Advancing to step 5:
208 can be fit into 227 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 151.0
Subtract 208 from 227 to get 19.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 192 / 208

Advancing to step 6:
The number 208 fits into 192 0 times, leaving a remainder of 192.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1510.0
If we subtract 0 from 192, we get 192.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 192 and continue with: 1923 / 208

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 1923 by 208, we get 9 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15109.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 1872 from 1923.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 518 / 208

Going ahead to step 8:
518 divided by 208 is 2 with a remainder of 102.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 151092.0
Subtracting 416 from 518 leaves us with 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 1020 by 208, we get 4 with a remainder of 188.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 151092.4
If we take 832 away from 1020, we end up with 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1880 by 208, we get 9 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 151092.49
Subtracting 1872 from 1880 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
80 divided by 208 is 0 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 151092.49
Subtract 0 from 80 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 208 fits into 800 3 times, leaving a remainder of 176.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 151092.4903
Deduct 624 from 800 and we're left with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 1760 by 208, we get 8 and a remainder of 96.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 151092.49038
If we subtract 1664 from 1760, we get 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 960 by 208, we get 4 and a remainder of 128.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 151092.490384
Deduct 832 from 960 and we're left with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
1280 divided by 208 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 151092.4903846
If we subtract 1248 from 1280, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
208 can be fit into 320 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 151092.49038461
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 208 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 151092.49038461 with a remaining 1.12e-07.
