31961 divided by 10 
We want to figure out the number of times 31961 can be divided by 10.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 10 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 10

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 31 by 10, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 30 from 31.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 10

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 19 by 10, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 10 from 19, we get 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 10

Moving on to step 4:
10 can be fit into 96 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 319.0
If we subtract 90 from 96, we get 6.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 61 / 10

Step 5:
10 goes into 61 6 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3196.0
Subtract 60 from 61 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 10 by 10, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3196.1
Subtracting 10 from 10 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 10 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3196.1
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 10 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3196.1
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3196.1 with a balance of 0.0.
