271015 divided by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 271015 can be divided by 31.

Going ahead to step 1:
31 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 31 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 271 / 31

On to step 3:
271 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 23.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 248 away from 271, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 230 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 230 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 87.0
If we take 217 away from 230, we end up with 13.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 131 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 131 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 7.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 874.0
If we take 124 away from 131, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 75 / 31

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 75 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8742.0
Subtract 62 from 75 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 130 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8742.4
If we take 124 away from 130, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 31 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8742.41
If we take 31 away from 60, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 290 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 11.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8742.419
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 279 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
31 can be fit into 110 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8742.4193
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 93 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 170 by 31, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8742.41935
If we take 155 away from 170, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
31 goes into 150 4 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8742.419354
Subtracting 124 from 150 leaves us 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 13:
If we divide 260 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8742.4193548
If we subtract 248 from 260, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 31 fits into 120 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8742.41935483
Deduct 93 from 120 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The final result is 8742.41935483 with a remainder of 2.7e-08.
