989224 ÷ 31 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 31 in 989224.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 31

Step 2:
The number 31 fits into 98 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 93 from 98 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 59 / 31

On to step 3:
The number 31 fits into 59 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
Deduct 31 from 59 and we're left with 28.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 282 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
The number 31 fits into 282 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319.0
If we subtract 279 from 282, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 32 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
32 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3191.0
Deduct 31 from 32 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 31

Step 6:
The number 31 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31910.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 140 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31910.4
Subtract 124 from 140 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
31 goes into 160 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31910.45
If we take 155 away from 160, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 9:
31 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31910.451
If we take 31 away from 50, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 10:
190 divided by 31 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31910.4516
Deduct 186 from 190 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
40 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31910.45161
If we take 31 away from 40, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 90 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31910.451612
Subtract 62 from 90 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
31 goes into 280 9 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31910.4516129
If we subtract 279 from 280, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
10 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31910.4516129
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 31910.4516129, and the remainder is 1e-08.
