Let's divide 31596494 by 981
Let's see how many times 981 fits into 31596494.

On to step 1:
The number 981 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 981

Advancing to step 2:
The number 981 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 315 / 981

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 315 by 981, we get 0 with a remainder of 315.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 315 to get 315.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 315 and continue with: 3159 / 981

On to step 4:
The number 981 fits into 3159 3 times, leaving a remainder of 216.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 2943 from 3159 and we're left with 216.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 216, then repeat: 2166 / 981

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 2166 by 981, we get 2 with a remainder of 204.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
The remainder is 204 after subtracting 1962 from 2166.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 204 and repeat the process: 2044 / 981

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 2044 by 981, we get 2 with a remainder of 82.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 322.0
If we take 1962 away from 2044, we end up with 82.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 82, then repeat: 829 / 981

Step 7:
981 goes into 829 0 times with a remainder of 829.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3220.0
If we take 0 away from 829, we end up with 829.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 829, then repeat: 8294 / 981

Moving on to step 8:
981 can be fit into 8294 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 446.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32208.0
If we subtract 7848 from 8294, we get 446.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
4460 divided by 981 is 4 with a remainder of 536.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32208.4
Deduct 3924 from 4460 and we're left with 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 981 fits into 5360 5 times, leaving a remainder of 455.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32208.45
The remainder is 455 after subtracting 4905 from 5360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
981 can be fit into 4550 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 626.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32208.454
Deduct 3924 from 4550 and we're left with 626.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6260, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 6260 by 981, we get 6 and a remainder of 374.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32208.4546
Subtract 5886 from 6260 to get 374.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 3740 by 981, we get 3 with a remainder of 797.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32208.45463
If we subtract 2943 from 3740, we get 797.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7970, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 981 fits into 7970 8 times, leaving a remainder of 122.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32208.454638
If we take 7848 away from 7970, we end up with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 981 fits into 1220 1 times, leaving a remainder of 239.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32208.4546381
If we subtract 981 from 1220, we get 239.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
981 goes into 2390 2 times with a remainder of 428.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32208.45463812
If we subtract 1962 from 2390, we get 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 32208.45463812 with a remaining 4.28e-07.
