We're dividing 31707378 by 712 
We're looking to find how many times 712 goes into 31707378.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 712 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 712

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 divided by 712 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 317 / 712

Advancing to step 3:
317 divided by 712 is 0 with a remainder of 317.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 317, we end up with 317.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 317 and continue: 3170 / 712

Advancing to step 4:
712 goes into 3170 4 times with a remainder of 322.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 2848 from 3170 to get 322.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 322, then repeat: 3227 / 712

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 3227 by 712, we get 4 with a remainder of 379.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we subtract 2848 from 3227, we get 379.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 379, then carry on: 3793 / 712

Let's proceed to step 6:
712 goes into 3793 5 times with a remainder of 233.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 445.0
The remainder is 233 after subtracting 3560 from 3793.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 233 and continue: 2337 / 712

Advancing to step 7:
2337 divided by 712 is 3 with a remainder of 201.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4453.0
The remainder is 201 after subtracting 2136 from 2337.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 201, then repeat: 2018 / 712

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 712 fits into 2018 2 times, leaving a remainder of 594.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44532.0
If we take 1424 away from 2018, we end up with 594.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5940, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 5940 by 712, we get 8 and a remainder of 244.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44532.8
Subtract 5696 from 5940 to get 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 2440 by 712, we get 3 and a remainder of 304.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44532.83
If we subtract 2136 from 2440, we get 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 712 fits into 3040 4 times, leaving a remainder of 192.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44532.834
Deduct 2848 from 3040 and we're left with 192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 1920 by 712, we get 2 with a remainder of 496.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44532.8342
Deduct 1424 from 1920 and we're left with 496.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4960, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 712 fits into 4960 6 times, leaving a remainder of 688.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44532.83426
Subtracting 4272 from 4960 leaves us with 688.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 6880 by 712, we get 9 and a remainder of 472.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44532.834269
If we subtract 6408 from 6880, we get 472.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
If we divide 4720 by 712, we get 6 and a remainder of 448.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44532.8342696
The remainder is 448 after subtracting 4272 from 4720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
The number 712 fits into 4480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 208.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44532.83426966
Subtract 4272 from 4480 to get 208.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 44532.83426966 with a balance of 2.08e-07.
