We're dividing 852112 by 31 
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 852112.

On to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 31

Step 2:
85 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 62 away from 85, we end up with 23.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 232 / 31

Moving on to step 3:
232 divided by 31 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 217 from 232 leaves us with 15.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 151 / 31

Step 4:
151 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 274.0
If we subtract 124 from 151, we get 27.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 271 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 271 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 23.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2748.0
If we subtract 248 from 271, we get 23.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 232 / 31

Advancing to step 6:
The number 31 fits into 232 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27487.0
If we subtract 217 from 232, we 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 150 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27487.4
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.

Step 8:
31 goes into 260 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27487.48
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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 31 fits into 120 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 27487.483
If we subtract 93 from 120, we 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.

On to step 10:
270 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27487.4838
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 27487.48387
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.

On to step 12:
31 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27487.48387
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 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 13:
The number 31 fits into 300 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 27487.4838709
If we subtract 279 from 300, we 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 14:
31 can be fit into 210 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27487.48387096
Subtracting 186 from 210 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 27487.48387096 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
