Let's divide 554603 by 31
We want to figure out the number of times 554603 can be divided by 31.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 can be fit into 55 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 31 from 55 to get 24.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 244 / 31

Moving on to step 3:
31 goes into 244 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 217 away from 244, we end up with 27.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 276 / 31

On to step 4:
31 can be fit into 276 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 178.0
If we subtract 248 from 276, we get 28.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 280 / 31

On to step 5:
If we divide 280 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1789.0
If we subtract 279 from 280, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 13 / 31

Advancing to step 6:
13 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 13.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17890.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 0 from 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
31 goes into 130 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17890.4
Subtracting 124 from 130 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.

On to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17890.41
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 31 from 60.
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:
290 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 17890.419
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.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17890.4193
Deduct 93 from 110 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
170 divided by 31 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17890.41935
Deduct 155 from 170 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 31 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17890.419354
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 260 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17890.4193548
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.

Let's proceed 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: 17890.41935483
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 17890.41935483 with a balance of 2.7e-08.
