We look at the division of 745422 by 31 
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 745422.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 31

Step 2:
If we divide 74 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 62 from 74 leaves us with 12.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 125 / 31

Step 3:
31 goes into 125 4 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 124 away from 125, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 31

Step 4:
14 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 240.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 142 / 31

Advancing to step 5:
142 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2404.0
If we subtract 124 from 142, we get 18.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 182 / 31

Going ahead to step 6:
31 goes into 182 5 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24045.0
Subtract 155 from 182 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
270 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24045.8
Subtracting 248 from 270 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 8:
31 goes into 220 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24045.87
Subtract 217 from 220 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
30 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24045.87
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.

On to step 10:
31 goes into 300 9 times with a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24045.8709
Subtract 279 from 300 to get 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 11:
210 divided by 31 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24045.87096
If we subtract 186 from 210, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 31 fits into 240 7 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 24045.870967
Deduct 217 from 240 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 230 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24045.8709677
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 217 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

The final result is 24045.8709677 with a remainder of 1.3e-07.
