We're dividing 144016 by 31 
Our goal is to divide 144016 by 31.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 31 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 31

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 14 to get 14.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 144 / 31

Moving on to step 3:
The number 31 fits into 144 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 124 from 144, we get 20.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 200 / 31

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 200 by 31, we get 6 with a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46.0
Deduct 186 from 200 and we're left with 14.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 141 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
141 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 17.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 464.0
Deduct 124 from 141 and we're left with 17.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 176 / 31

Moving on to step 6:
176 divided by 31 is 5 with a remainder of 21.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4645.0
Deduct 155 from 176 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 210 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4645.6
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.

Step 8:
31 goes into 240 7 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4645.67
Deduct 217 from 240 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
31 can be fit into 230 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4645.677
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 outcome is 4645.677, with a leftover of 0.0013.
