We're dividing 31798588 by 196 
We want to divide 31798588 by 196.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 196, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 196

Step 2:
31 divided by 196 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 317 / 196

Step 3:
196 can be fit into 317 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 121.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 121 after subtracting 196 from 317.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 121, then repeat: 1219 / 196

Step 4:
196 can be fit into 1219 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 1176 from 1219 and we're left with 43.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 43 and continue: 438 / 196

Going ahead to step 5:
196 goes into 438 2 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 162.0
If we subtract 392 from 438, we get 46.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 465 / 196

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 465 by 196, we get 2 with a remainder of 73.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1622.0
If we take 392 away from 465, we end up with 73.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 738 / 196

Advancing to step 7:
738 divided by 196 is 3 with a remainder of 150.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16223.0
If we subtract 588 from 738, we get 150.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 150 and repeat the process: 1508 / 196

Step 8:
196 goes into 1508 7 times with a remainder of 136.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 162237.0
Deduct 1372 from 1508 and we're left with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 1360 by 196, we get 6 and a remainder of 184.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 162237.6
If we take 1176 away from 1360, we end up with 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
1840 divided by 196 is 9 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 162237.69
Deduct 1764 from 1840 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
760 divided by 196 is 3 with a remainder of 172.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 162237.693
The remainder is 172 after subtracting 588 from 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 1720 by 196, we get 8 with a remainder of 152.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 162237.6938
The remainder is 152 after subtracting 1568 from 1720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 196 fits into 1520 7 times, leaving a remainder of 148.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 162237.69387
If we take 1372 away from 1520, we end up with 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 1480 by 196, we get 7 with a remainder of 108.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 162237.693877
If we take 1372 away from 1480, we end up with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 162237.693877 and a remainder of 1.08e-05.
