We're dividing 493274 by 31 
We want to divide 493274 by 31.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 31

On to step 2:
If we divide 49 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 31 from 49 to get 18.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 183 / 31

Moving on to step 3:
183 divided by 31 is 5 with a remainder of 28.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 155 from 183.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 282 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
282 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 159.0
Deduct 279 from 282 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 37 / 31

Advancing to step 5:
31 can be fit into 37 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1591.0
Deduct 31 from 37 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 31

Going ahead to step 6:
64 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15912.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 62 from 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
31 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15912.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15912.06
Subtracting 186 from 200 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
140 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15912.064
Deduct 124 from 140 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
31 can be fit into 160 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15912.0645
If we subtract 155 from 160, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 50 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15912.06451
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 31 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
31 can be fit into 190 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15912.064516
If we take 186 away from 190, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
40 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15912.0645161
Subtract 31 from 40 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
31 goes into 90 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15912.06451612
Subtract 62 from 90 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 15912.06451612 with a remaining 2.8e-08.
