We're dividing 31999498 by 899 
We want to divide 31999498 by 899.

On to step 1:
The number 899 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 899

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 31 by 899, we get 0 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 31, we get 31.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 319 / 899

Moving on to step 3:
319 divided by 899 is 0 with a remainder of 319.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 319 and we're left with 319.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 319, then carry on: 3199 / 899

On to step 4:
3199 divided by 899 is 3 with a remainder of 502.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 502 after subtracting 2697 from 3199.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 502 and continue: 5029 / 899

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 5029 by 899, we get 5 with a remainder of 534.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 35.0
Subtract 4495 from 5029 to get 534.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 534 and repeat the process: 5344 / 899

On to step 6:
If we divide 5344 by 899, we get 5 and a remainder of 849.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 355.0
If we subtract 4495 from 5344, we get 849.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 849 and continue with: 8499 / 899

Advancing to step 7:
8499 divided by 899 is 9 with a remainder of 408.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3559.0
Deduct 8091 from 8499 and we're left with 408.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 408, then repeat: 4088 / 899

Moving on to step 8:
899 goes into 4088 4 times with a remainder of 492.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35594.0
Subtract 3596 from 4088 to get 492.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4920, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
4920 divided by 899 is 5 with a remainder of 425.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35594.5
Subtracting 4495 from 4920 leaves us with 425.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 899 fits into 4250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 654.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35594.54
Deduct 3596 from 4250 and we're left with 654.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
6540 divided by 899 is 7 with a remainder of 247.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35594.547
Deduct 6293 from 6540 and we're left with 247.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
899 goes into 2470 2 times with a remainder of 672.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35594.5472
If we subtract 1798 from 2470, we get 672.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
899 can be fit into 6720 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 427.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 35594.54727
If we take 6293 away from 6720, we end up with 427.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 4270 by 899, we get 4 and a remainder of 674.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 35594.547274
If we take 3596 away from 4270, we end up with 674.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 6740 by 899, we get 7 and a remainder of 447.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35594.5472747
If we subtract 6293 from 6740, we get 447.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 4470 by 899, we get 4 with a remainder of 874.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 35594.54727474
Subtract 3596 from 4470 to get 874.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8740, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 35594.54727474, and the remainder is 8.74e-07.
