We divide 212909 by 31
Our goal is to divide 212909 by 31.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 212 / 31

Step 3:
If we divide 212 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 186 from 212, we get 26.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 269 / 31

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 269 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 248 from 269.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 210 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
31 can be fit into 210 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 686.0
Subtracting 186 from 210 leaves us with 24.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 249 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
249 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6868.0
If we subtract 248 from 249, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
31 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6868.0
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 31 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6868.03
Deduct 93 from 100 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
31 can be fit into 70 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6868.032
Subtracting 62 from 70 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
80 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6868.0322
Subtract 62 from 80 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6868.0322, and the remainder is 0.00018.
