We divide 31581729 by 124
We want to divide 31581729 by 124.

Step 1:
3 divided by 124 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 124

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 31 by 124, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 315 / 124

Let's proceed to step 3:
124 can be fit into 315 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 248 away from 315, we end up with 67.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 67 and continue with: 678 / 124

On to step 4:
678 divided by 124 is 5 with a remainder of 58.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 620 from 678.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 581 / 124

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 581 by 124, we get 4 with a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 254.0
The remainder is 85 after subtracting 496 from 581.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 85 and continue with: 857 / 124

Advancing to step 6:
857 divided by 124 is 6 with a remainder of 113.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2546.0
The remainder is 113 after subtracting 744 from 857.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 113, then repeat: 1132 / 124

On to step 7:
If we divide 1132 by 124, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25469.0
If we take 1116 away from 1132, we end up with 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 124

Going ahead to step 8:
124 goes into 169 1 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 254691.0
Subtract 124 from 169 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 124 fits into 450 3 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 254691.3
Subtracting 372 from 450 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 780 by 124, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 254691.36
Subtracting 744 from 780 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 360 by 124, we get 2 and a remainder of 112.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 254691.362
Subtract 248 from 360 to get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 1120 by 124, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 254691.3629
If we subtract 1116 from 1120, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
40 divided by 124 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 254691.3629
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 400 by 124, we get 3 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 254691.362903
If we take 372 away from 400, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 15:
280 divided by 124 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 254691.3629032
Subtracting 248 from 280 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
320 divided by 124 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 254691.36290322
If we subtract 248 from 320, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 254691.36290322 and a remainder of 7.2e-08.
