31977599 ÷ 318 
We're looking to find how many times 318 goes into 31977599.

On to step 1:
The number 318 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 318

Step 2:
If we divide 31 by 318, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 319 / 318

Moving on to step 3:
The number 318 fits into 319 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 318 from 319.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 318

Advancing to step 4:
The number 318 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 177 / 318

Step 5:
318 can be fit into 177 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 177.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 100.0
Subtracting 0 from 177 leaves us with 177.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 177, then repeat: 1775 / 318

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 1775 by 318, we get 5 with a remainder of 185.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1005.0
Subtracting 1590 from 1775 leaves us with 185.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 185 and continue with: 1859 / 318

On to step 7:
318 goes into 1859 5 times with a remainder of 269.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 10055.0
The remainder is 269 after subtracting 1590 from 1859.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 269 and continue with: 2699 / 318

Step 8:
318 goes into 2699 8 times with a remainder of 155.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 100558.0
The remainder is 155 after subtracting 2544 from 2699.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1550, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 1550 by 318, we get 4 with a remainder of 278.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 100558.4
Deduct 1272 from 1550 and we're left with 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
318 can be fit into 2780 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 236.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 100558.48
Subtract 2544 from 2780 to get 236.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 2360 by 318, we get 7 and a remainder of 134.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 100558.487
If we take 2226 away from 2360, we end up with 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
1340 divided by 318 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 100558.4874
Subtract 1272 from 1340 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 318 fits into 680 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 100558.48742
Subtracting 636 from 680 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 440 by 318, we get 1 with a remainder of 122.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 100558.487421
Subtracting 318 from 440 leaves us with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

Step 15:
When dividing 1220 by 318, we get 3 with a remainder of 266.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100558.4874213
Subtract 954 from 1220 to get 266.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2660, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 2660 by 318, we get 8 and a remainder of 116.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 100558.48742138
Subtracting 2544 from 2660 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

The final result is 100558.48742138 with a remainder of 1.16e-07.
