Let's divide 232474 by 31
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 232474.

On to step 1:
31 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 31

Step 2:
31 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 23 to get 23.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 232 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
232 divided by 31 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 217 from 232.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 154 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 154 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74.0
If we subtract 124 from 154, we get 30.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 307 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
307 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 28.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 749.0
If we take 279 away from 307, we end up with 28.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 284 / 31

On to step 6:
If we divide 284 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7499.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 279 from 284.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 31 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7499.1
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 31 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 190 by 31, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7499.16
Subtracting 186 from 190 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7499.161
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 31 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
31 can be fit into 90 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7499.1612
If we subtract 62 from 90, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 31 fits into 280 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 7499.16129
If we take 279 away from 280, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 12:
31 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7499.16129
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
31 can be fit into 100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 7499.1612903
If we subtract 93 from 100, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 70 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7499.16129032
If we take 62 away from 70, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7499.16129032 with a balance of 8e-09.
