We divide 499912 by 31
We want to divide 499912 by 31.

Step 1:
31 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 31

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 49 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 31 away from 49, we end up with 18.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 189 / 31

On to step 3:
31 goes into 189 6 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 186 from 189 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
31 goes into 39 1 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 161.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 31 from 39.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 81 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 31 fits into 81 2 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1612.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 62 from 81.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 192 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 192 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16126.0
If we subtract 186 from 192, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
31 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16126.1
If we subtract 31 from 60, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 31 fits into 290 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16126.19
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 279 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
31 can be fit into 110 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16126.193
Deduct 93 from 110 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 170 by 31, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16126.1935
If we subtract 155 from 170, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 11:
150 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16126.19354
If we subtract 124 from 150, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 260 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 16126.193548
If we subtract 248 from 260, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
120 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16126.1935483
Deduct 93 from 120 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
31 can be fit into 270 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16126.19354838
Deduct 248 from 270 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 16126.19354838, with a leftover of 2.2e-08.
