117948 ÷ 31 
We want to divide 117948 by 31.

Going ahead to step 1:
31 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 31

Moving on to step 2:
31 goes into 11 0 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 11, we get 11.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 117 / 31

On to step 3:
31 can be fit into 117 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 93 away from 117, we end up with 24.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 249 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
31 can be fit into 249 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we take 248 away from 249, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 31

On to step 5:
When dividing 14 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 380.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 0 from 14.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 148 / 31

Step 6:
If we divide 148 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3804.0
If we subtract 124 from 148, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 240 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3804.7
If we subtract 217 from 240, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 230 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3804.77
Subtract 217 from 230 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.

After the division, we end up with 3804.77 and a remainder of 0.013.
