897879 ÷ 31 
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 897879.

Going ahead to step 1:
8 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
89 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 62 from 89 to get 27.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 277 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 31 fits into 277 8 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 248 from 277 leaves us with 29.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 298 / 31

Step 4:
31 can be fit into 298 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 289.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 279 from 298.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 197 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
31 can be fit into 197 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2896.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 186 from 197.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 119 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
31 can be fit into 119 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28963.0
Subtract 93 from 119 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 260 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28963.8
If we take 248 away from 260, 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28963.83
Subtracting 93 from 120 leaves us 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.

On to step 9:
31 goes into 270 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28963.838
Deduct 248 from 270 and we're left with 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 10:
31 can be fit into 220 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28963.8387
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
31 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 28963.8387
If we subtract 0 from 30, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 300 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28963.838709
Deduct 279 from 300 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 210 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28963.8387096
Deduct 186 from 210 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
31 can be fit into 240 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28963.83870967
If we subtract 217 from 240, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Our division results in 28963.83870967 with a remaining 2.3e-08.
