56502 ÷ 31 
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 56502.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 56 / 31

On to step 2:
If we divide 56 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 25.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 31 from 56 to get 25.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 255 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
31 goes into 255 8 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 248 from 255 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 70 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 31 fits into 70 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 182.0
Deduct 62 from 70 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 82 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
31 can be fit into 82 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1822.0
Deduct 62 from 82 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 200 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1822.6
If we take 186 away from 200, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 140 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1822.64
Subtract 124 from 140 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 160 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1822.645
Subtracting 155 from 160 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1822.6451
Deduct 31 from 50 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 190 by 31, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1822.64516
If we take 186 away from 190, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 40 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1822.645161
Deduct 31 from 40 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 90 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1822.6451612
Deduct 62 from 90 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 31 fits into 280 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1822.64516129
Subtract 279 from 280 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1822.64516129 with a balance of 1e-09.
