Let's divide 253449 by 31
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 253449.

Step 1:
31 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 31 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 253 / 31

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 253 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 5.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 248 from 253 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
The number 31 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 81.0
Subtract 31 from 54 to get 23.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 234 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 234 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 817.0
Deduct 217 from 234 and we're left with 17.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 179 / 31

On to step 6:
31 goes into 179 5 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8175.0
Subtract 155 from 179 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
31 goes into 240 7 times with a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8175.7
Subtract 217 from 240 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
31 can be fit into 230 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8175.77
Subtract 217 from 230 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8175.77 with a balance of 0.013.
