We divide 31811939 by 987
We want to divide 31811939 by 987.

Step 1:
987 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 987

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 divided by 987 is 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.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 318 / 987

Let's proceed to step 3:
987 goes into 318 0 times with a remainder of 318.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 318, we end up with 318.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 318, then repeat: 3181 / 987

On to step 4:
If we divide 3181 by 987, we get 3 and a remainder of 220.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 2961 from 3181 leaves us with 220.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 220 and repeat the process: 2201 / 987

Step 5:
When dividing 2201 by 987, we get 2 with a remainder of 227.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we take 1974 away from 2201, we end up with 227.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 227 and repeat the process: 2279 / 987

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 2279 by 987, we get 2 and a remainder of 305.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 322.0
Subtract 1974 from 2279 to get 305.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 305 and continue with: 3053 / 987

Step 7:
987 can be fit into 3053 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 92.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3223.0
Subtracting 2961 from 3053 leaves us with 92.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 92 and repeat the process: 929 / 987

Going ahead to step 8:
929 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 929.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32230.0
The remainder is 929 after subtracting 0 from 929.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9290, and continue the process.

Step 9:
987 can be fit into 9290 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 407.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32230.9
The remainder is 407 after subtracting 8883 from 9290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4070, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 4070 by 987, we get 4 with a remainder of 122.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32230.94
The remainder is 122 after subtracting 3948 from 4070.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
987 goes into 1220 1 times with a remainder of 233.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32230.941
If we subtract 987 from 1220, we get 233.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 987 fits into 2330 2 times, leaving a remainder of 356.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 32230.9412
Deduct 1974 from 2330 and we're left with 356.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3560, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 3560 by 987, we get 3 with a remainder of 599.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32230.94123
The remainder is 599 after subtracting 2961 from 3560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5990, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 5990 by 987, we get 6 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32230.941236
Subtract 5922 from 5990 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.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 680 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 680.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32230.941236
Subtract 0 from 680 to get 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
6800 divided by 987 is 6 with a remainder of 878.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 32230.94123606
Subtract 5922 from 6800 to get 878.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8780, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 32230.94123606 with a balance of 8.78e-07.
