Let's divide 609459 by 31
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 609459.

Moving on to step 1:
6 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 60 / 31

Advancing to step 2:
31 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 31 away from 60, we end up with 29.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 299 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
31 can be fit into 299 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 279 from 299, we get 20.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 204 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 204 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 196.0
Subtract 186 from 204 to get 18.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 185 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 185 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1965.0
Subtracting 155 from 185 leaves us with 30.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 309 / 31

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 309 by 31, we get 9 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19659.0
If we take 279 away from 309, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 300 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19659.9
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 279 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
210 divided by 31 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19659.96
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 186 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 240 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19659.967
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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 230 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19659.9677
If we take 217 away from 230, we end up with 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 19659.9677 with a balance of 0.00013.
