We look at the division of 31442 by 70 
Our goal is to divide 31442 by 70.

Advancing to step 1:
70 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 70

Advancing to step 2:
70 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 31, we get 31.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 314 / 70

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 70 fits into 314 4 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 280 away from 314, we end up with 34.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 344 / 70

Step 4:
70 can be fit into 344 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 280 from 344.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 64, then repeat: 642 / 70

On to step 5:
70 goes into 642 9 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 449.0
If we take 630 away from 642, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 120 by 70, we get 1 with a remainder of 50.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 449.1
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 70 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
500 divided by 70 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 449.17
Subtracting 490 from 500 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
70 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 449.171
Deduct 70 from 100 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
300 divided by 70 is 4 with a remainder of 20.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 449.1714
If we subtract 280 from 300, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 200 by 70, we get 2 with a remainder of 60.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 449.17142
Subtracting 140 from 200 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
70 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 449.171428
Subtracting 560 from 600 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 70, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 449.1714285
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 350 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 13:
70 goes into 500 7 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 449.17142857
If we subtract 490 from 500, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 449.17142857 with a remainder of 1e-08.
