We look at the division of 31485286 by 836 
We're looking to find how many times 836 goes into 31485286.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 836, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 836

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 divided by 836 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 314 / 836

On to step 3:
314 divided by 836 is 0 with a remainder of 314.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 314, we get 314.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 314, then carry on: 3148 / 836

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 836 fits into 3148 3 times, leaving a remainder of 640.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 2508 from 3148 to get 640.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 640, then repeat: 6405 / 836

Step 5:
When dividing 6405 by 836, we get 7 with a remainder of 553.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37.0
The remainder is 553 after subtracting 5852 from 6405.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 553, then carry on: 5532 / 836

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 836 fits into 5532 6 times, leaving a remainder of 516.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 376.0
The remainder is 516 after subtracting 5016 from 5532.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 516 and continue: 5168 / 836

Going ahead to step 7:
836 goes into 5168 6 times with a remainder of 152.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3766.0
Deduct 5016 from 5168 and we're left with 152.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 152, then carry on: 1526 / 836

Moving on to step 8:
The number 836 fits into 1526 1 times, leaving a remainder of 690.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37661.0
Subtracting 836 from 1526 leaves us with 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 6900 by 836, we get 8 and a remainder of 212.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37661.8
Subtract 6688 from 6900 to get 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
2120 divided by 836 is 2 with a remainder of 448.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37661.82
Subtract 1672 from 2120 to get 448.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 4480 by 836, we get 5 and a remainder of 300.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 37661.825
Subtract 4180 from 4480 to get 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 836 fits into 3000 3 times, leaving a remainder of 492.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37661.8253
If we subtract 2508 from 3000, we get 492.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
836 can be fit into 4920 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 740.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37661.82535
The remainder is 740 after subtracting 4180 from 4920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7400, and continue the process.

Step 14:
7400 divided by 836 is 8 with a remainder of 712.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37661.825358
Subtracting 6688 from 7400 leaves us with 712.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 7120 by 836, we get 8 with a remainder of 432.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37661.8253588
If we subtract 6688 from 7120, we get 432.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 37661.8253588 and a remainder of 4.32e-06.
