We divide 725764 by 31
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 725764.

Let's proceed to step 1:
31 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
31 goes into 72 2 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 62 from 72 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 105 / 31

On to step 3:
When dividing 105 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 12.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtracting 93 from 105 leaves us with 12.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
31 can be fit into 127 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 234.0
If we take 124 away from 127, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 36 / 31

Step 5:
When dividing 36 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2341.0
Deduct 31 from 36 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 31 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23411.0
If we take 31 away from 54, we end up 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 7:
31 goes into 230 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23411.7
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
130 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23411.74
Subtracting 124 from 130 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
60 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23411.741
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 31 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 290 by 31, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23411.7419
If we subtract 279 from 290, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 110 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23411.74193
If we subtract 93 from 110, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 31 fits into 170 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23411.741935
Subtracting 155 from 170 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 150 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23411.7419354
Subtracting 124 from 150 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 260 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 23411.74193548
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 248 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 23411.74193548 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
