We divide 228686 by 31
Our goal is to divide 228686 by 31.

On to step 1:
31 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in 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.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 31

Moving on to step 2:
31 goes into 22 0 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 22, we get 22.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 228 / 31

Let's proceed to step 3:
31 goes into 228 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 217 from 228 leaves us with 11.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 116 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 116 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 23.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 73.0
Deduct 93 from 116 and we're left with 23.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 238 / 31

Step 5:
238 divided by 31 is 7 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 737.0
If we take 217 away from 238, we end up with 21.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 216 / 31

Advancing to step 6:
216 divided by 31 is 6 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7376.0
If we take 186 away from 216, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 300 by 31, we get 9 with a remainder of 21.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7376.9
If we subtract 279 from 300, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 210 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7376.96
If we subtract 186 from 210, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 31 fits into 240 7 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7376.967
If we subtract 217 from 240, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 230 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7376.9677
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 217 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 7376.9677, with a leftover of 0.00013.
