We divide 31490 by 46
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 31490.

On to step 1:
3 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 46

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 31 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 314 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 314 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 276 from 314, we get 38.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 389 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
46 can be fit into 389 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 368 away from 389, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 210 / 46

Step 5:
46 can be fit into 210 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 684.0
If we take 184 away from 210, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 6:
The number 46 fits into 260 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 684.5
Subtracting 230 from 260 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
If we divide 300 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 684.56
If we subtract 276 from 300, 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.

Step 8:
The number 46 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 684.565
Deduct 230 from 240 and we're left with 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 9:
If we divide 100 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 684.5652
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 684.56521
Deduct 46 from 80 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 684.565217
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 322 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
46 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 684.5652173
Subtracting 138 from 180 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 420 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 684.56521739
Subtracting 414 from 420 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final result is 684.56521739 with a remainder of 6e-09.
