We look at the division of 312440 by 16 
We want to figure out the number of times 312440 can be divided by 16.

On to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 16, we get 0 and 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 / 16

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 31 by 16, we get 1 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 16 from 31 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 152 / 16

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 152 by 16, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we take 144 away from 152, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 84 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
84 divided by 16 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 195.0
If we subtract 80 from 84, we get 4.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 44 / 16

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 44 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1952.0
If we take 32 away from 44, we end up with 12.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 120 / 16

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 120 by 16, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19527.0
Subtract 112 from 120 to get 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 7:
16 can be fit into 80 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19527.5
Subtracting 80 from 80 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.

On to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 19527.5
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.

Moving on to step 9:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19527.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 19527.5, and the remainder is 0.0.
