556545 ÷ 31 
We want to divide 556545 by 31.

Going ahead to step 1:
31 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 31

Advancing to step 2:
31 can be fit into 55 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 31 away from 55, we end up with 24.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 246 / 31

Advancing to step 3:
The number 31 fits into 246 7 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 217 from 246, we get 29.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 295 / 31

Going ahead to step 4:
295 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 16.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 179.0
Deduct 279 from 295 and we're left with 16.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 164 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
31 goes into 164 5 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1795.0
If we take 155 away from 164, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 95 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
31 can be fit into 95 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 17953.0
If we take 93 away from 95, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
20 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17953.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17953.06
If we take 186 away from 200, we end up with 14.
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 9:
31 can be fit into 140 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17953.064
Deduct 124 from 140 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 10:
31 can be fit into 160 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17953.0645
If we take 155 away from 160, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 31 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17953.06451
If we subtract 31 from 50, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
31 goes into 190 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17953.064516
Subtracting 186 from 190 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 40 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17953.0645161
If we take 31 away from 40, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 90 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17953.06451612
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 62 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 17953.06451612, with a leftover of 2.8e-08.
