We're dividing 31855159 by 741 
We're looking to find how many times 741 goes into 31855159.

Moving on to step 1:
741 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 741

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 31 by 741, we get 0 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 318 / 741

Advancing to step 3:
741 can be fit into 318 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 318.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 318 to get 318.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 318, then repeat: 3185 / 741

Advancing to step 4:
741 goes into 3185 4 times with a remainder of 221.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 221 after subtracting 2964 from 3185.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 221, then repeat: 2215 / 741

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 2215 by 741, we get 2 and a remainder of 733.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we take 1482 away from 2215, we end up with 733.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 733 and continue with: 7331 / 741

On to step 6:
The number 741 fits into 7331 9 times, leaving a remainder of 662.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 429.0
Subtracting 6669 from 7331 leaves us with 662.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 662, then repeat: 6625 / 741

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 6625 by 741, we get 8 with a remainder of 697.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4298.0
Deduct 5928 from 6625 and we're left with 697.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 697 and repeat the process: 6979 / 741

Going ahead to step 8:
741 can be fit into 6979 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 310.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42989.0
The remainder is 310 after subtracting 6669 from 6979.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
741 can be fit into 3100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 42989.4
Deduct 2964 from 3100 and we're left with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
1360 divided by 741 is 1 with a remainder of 619.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42989.41
The remainder is 619 after subtracting 741 from 1360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 6190 by 741, we get 8 and a remainder of 262.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42989.418
If we take 5928 away from 6190, we end up with 262.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
741 goes into 2620 3 times with a remainder of 397.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42989.4183
The remainder is 397 after subtracting 2223 from 2620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3970, and continue the process.

Step 13:
741 goes into 3970 5 times with a remainder of 265.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42989.41835
Deduct 3705 from 3970 and we're left with 265.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 2650 by 741, we get 3 and a remainder of 427.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42989.418353
If we subtract 2223 from 2650, we get 427.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4270, and continue the process.

Step 15:
741 goes into 4270 5 times with a remainder of 565.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42989.4183535
Subtracting 3705 from 4270 leaves us with 565.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5650, and continue the process.

Step 16:
5650 divided by 741 is 7 with a remainder of 463.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42989.41835357
If we subtract 5187 from 5650, we get 463.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4630, and continue the process.

Our division results in 42989.41835357 with a remaining 4.63e-07.
