537924 ÷ 31 
We want to divide 537924 by 31.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
53 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 31 from 53 and we're left with 22.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 227 / 31

On to step 3:
If we divide 227 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 217 from 227, we get 10.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 109 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
31 can be fit into 109 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 173.0
Deduct 93 from 109 and we're left with 16.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 162 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
31 can be fit into 162 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1735.0
Subtract 155 from 162 to get 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 31

Step 6:
74 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17352.0
Subtracting 62 from 74 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
The number 31 fits into 120 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17352.3
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 8:
270 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17352.38
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.

Step 9:
If we divide 220 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17352.387
If we subtract 217 from 220, we 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.

Advancing to step 10:
31 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17352.387
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.

Step 11:
300 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 21.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17352.38709
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.

Step 12:
If we divide 210 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17352.387096
Subtracting 186 from 210 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 240 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17352.3870967
If we take 217 away from 240, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
31 goes into 230 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17352.38709677
If we subtract 217 from 230, we 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.

The final result is 17352.38709677 with a remainder of 1.3e-08.
