We divide 486847 by 31
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 486847.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
48 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 31 from 48 leaves us with 17.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 176 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
176 divided by 31 is 5 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 155 from 176 to get 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 31

Going ahead to step 4:
31 can be fit into 218 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 157.0
If we take 217 away from 218, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 31

Advancing to step 5:
The number 31 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1570.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 0 from 14.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 147 / 31

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 147 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 23.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15704.0
Deduct 124 from 147 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.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 31 fits into 230 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15704.7
If we take 217 away from 230, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 8:
31 goes into 130 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15704.74
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 124 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 31 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15704.741
If we subtract 31 from 60, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 290 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15704.7419
Subtract 279 from 290 to 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:
When dividing 110 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15704.74193
Deduct 93 from 110 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
31 can be fit into 170 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15704.741935
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 150 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15704.7419354
If we take 124 away from 150, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
31 goes into 260 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15704.74193548
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.

The final outcome is 15704.74193548, with a leftover of 1.2e-08.
