We're dividing 31459 by 57 
We want to figure out the number of times 31459 can be divided by 57.

Let's proceed to step 1:
57 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 57

Step 2:
57 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 31 to get 31.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 314 / 57

On to step 3:
57 goes into 314 5 times with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 285 away from 314, we end up with 29.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 295 / 57

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 57 fits into 295 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 285 from 295.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 109 / 57

Moving on to step 5:
57 goes into 109 1 times with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 551.0
If we subtract 57 from 109, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
57 goes into 520 9 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 551.9
If we take 513 away from 520, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 70 by 57, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 551.91
Subtracting 57 from 70 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
130 divided by 57 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 551.912
If we take 114 away from 130, we end up 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.

Step 9:
57 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 551.9122
Subtract 114 from 160 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 551.9122, and the remainder is 0.00046.
