Let's divide 747210 by 31
We want to figure out the number of times 747210 can be divided by 31.

On to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 31

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 62 from 74.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 31

On to step 3:
127 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 124 from 127.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 32 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
31 goes into 32 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 241.0
Deduct 31 from 32 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 11 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2410.0
If we subtract 0 from 11, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 110 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
110 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24103.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 93 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 170 by 31, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24103.5
If we subtract 155 from 170, 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 150 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 24103.54
Deduct 124 from 150 and we're left 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 9:
31 goes into 260 8 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24103.548
Deduct 248 from 260 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
120 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24103.5483
Subtracting 93 from 120 leaves us with 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 11:
The number 31 fits into 270 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24103.54838
If we subtract 248 from 270, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 31 fits into 220 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24103.548387
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.

Step 13:
The number 31 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24103.548387
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up 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 14:
300 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24103.54838709
If we take 279 away from 300, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 24103.54838709, and the remainder is 2.1e-08.
