Let's divide 31174 by 17
Our goal is to divide 31174 by 17.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 17

Moving on to step 2:
The number 17 fits into 31 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 17 from 31, we get 14.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 141 / 17

Let's proceed to step 3:
17 can be fit into 141 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 136 from 141, we get 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 57 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
17 can be fit into 57 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 183.0
If we subtract 51 from 57, we get 6.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
64 divided by 17 is 3 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1833.0
If we take 51 away from 64, 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 6:
If we divide 130 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1833.7
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 119 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 17, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1833.76
If we take 102 away from 110, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 80 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1833.764
Subtract 68 from 80 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
17 can be fit into 120 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1833.7647
If we take 119 away from 120, 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 10 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1833.7647
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 100 by 17, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1833.764705
Subtract 85 from 100 to get 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 12:
17 goes into 150 8 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1833.7647058
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 136 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
17 goes into 140 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1833.76470588
If we subtract 136 from 140, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 1833.76470588 with a remainder of 4e-09.
