Let's divide 24179273 by 31
We want to divide 24179273 by 31.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 31

On to step 2:
The number 31 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 241 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
31 goes into 241 7 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 217 away from 241, we end up with 24.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 247 / 31

Step 4:
31 goes into 247 7 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 77.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 217 from 247.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 309 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 309 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 779.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 279 from 309.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 302 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 302 by 31, we get 9 with a remainder of 23.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7799.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 279 from 302.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 237 / 31

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 237 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 77997.0
Subtracting 217 from 237 leaves us with 20.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 203 / 31

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 203 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 17.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 779976.0
Deduct 186 from 203 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 170 by 31, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 779976.5
If we subtract 155 from 170, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 779976.54
Subtracting 124 from 150 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 31 fits into 260 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 779976.548
Subtracting 248 from 260 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 120 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 779976.5483
If we take 93 away from 120, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 270 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 779976.54838
If we subtract 248 from 270, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 220 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 779976.548387
If we take 217 away from 220, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
31 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 779976.548387
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
The number 31 fits into 300 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 779976.54838709
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 279 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

The final result is 779976.54838709 with a remainder of 2.1e-08.
