We're dividing 12831 by 97 
We want to divide 12831 by 97.

Advancing to step 1:
97 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 97

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 12 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 97

On to step 3:
When dividing 128 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 97 away from 128, we end up with 31.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 313 / 97

On to step 4:
If we divide 313 by 97, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtracting 291 from 313 leaves us with 22.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 221 / 97

Going ahead to step 5:
97 goes into 221 2 times with a remainder of 27.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 132.0
If we take 194 away from 221, we end up 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 6:
If we divide 270 by 97, we get 2 and a remainder of 76.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 132.2
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 194 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
97 can be fit into 760 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 81.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 132.27
Subtracting 679 from 760 leaves us with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 97 fits into 810 8 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 132.278
If we take 776 away from 810, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
97 goes into 340 3 times with a remainder of 49.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 132.2783
Deduct 291 from 340 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 97 fits into 490 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 132.27835
If we take 485 away from 490, 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.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 50 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 132.27835
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
97 can be fit into 500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 132.2783505
Subtract 485 from 500 to 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.

Moving on to step 13:
150 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 53.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 132.27835051
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 97 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

The final result is 132.27835051 with a remainder of 5.3e-08.
