31779759 divided by 140 
We want to figure out the number of times 31779759 can be divided by 140.

Step 1:
140 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 140

Going ahead to step 2:
140 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 317 / 140

Step 3:
When dividing 317 by 140, we get 2 with a remainder of 37.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 280 from 317 to get 37.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 377 / 140

On to step 4:
If we divide 377 by 140, we get 2 and a remainder of 97.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtracting 280 from 377 leaves us with 97.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 97 and repeat the process: 979 / 140

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 979 by 140, we get 6 and a remainder of 139.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 226.0
The remainder is 139 after subtracting 840 from 979.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 139, then carry on: 1397 / 140

Going ahead to step 6:
1397 divided by 140 is 9 with a remainder of 137.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2269.0
The remainder is 137 after subtracting 1260 from 1397.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 137, then repeat: 1375 / 140

Step 7:
The number 140 fits into 1375 9 times, leaving a remainder of 115.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22699.0
If we subtract 1260 from 1375, we get 115.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 115 and continue with: 1159 / 140

Advancing to step 8:
1159 divided by 140 is 8 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 226998.0
Subtract 1120 from 1159 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 9:
140 goes into 390 2 times with a remainder of 110.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 226998.2
Deduct 280 from 390 and we're left with 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
140 goes into 1100 7 times with a remainder of 120.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 226998.27
Deduct 980 from 1100 and we're left with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 1200 by 140, we get 8 with a remainder of 80.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 226998.278
Deduct 1120 from 1200 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
140 goes into 800 5 times with a remainder of 100.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 226998.2785
If we take 700 away from 800, we end up with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 140 fits into 1000 7 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 226998.27857
If we subtract 980 from 1000, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 14:
200 divided by 140 is 1 with a remainder of 60.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 226998.278571
Deduct 140 from 200 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
The number 140 fits into 600 4 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 226998.2785714
Subtracting 560 from 600 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
140 can be fit into 400 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 120.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 226998.27857142
If we subtract 280 from 400, we get 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 226998.27857142, and the remainder is 1.2e-07.
