We're dividing 31153 by 98 
Our goal is to divide 31153 by 98.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 98

Going ahead to step 2:
98 goes into 31 0 times with a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 311 / 98

Moving on to step 3:
98 goes into 311 3 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 294 from 311 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 175 / 98

Moving on to step 4:
175 divided by 98 is 1 with a remainder of 77.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtracting 98 from 175 leaves us with 77.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 77, then carry on: 773 / 98

Let's proceed to step 5:
98 can be fit into 773 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 87.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 317.0
Subtracting 686 from 773 leaves us with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
98 can be fit into 870 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 86.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 317.8
Deduct 784 from 870 and we're left with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 98 fits into 860 8 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 317.88
Subtract 784 from 860 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 317.88 with a balance of 0.076.
