We look at the division of 216396 by 31 
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 216396.

Let's proceed to step 1:
31 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in 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.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
31 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 216 / 31

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 216 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 186 from 216 and we're left with 30.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 303 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
303 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 69.0
If we subtract 279 from 303, we get 24.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 249 / 31

Step 5:
The number 31 fits into 249 8 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 698.0
Subtracting 248 from 249 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 31

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 16 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6980.0
Deduct 0 from 16 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 160 by 31, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6980.5
If we take 155 away from 160, we end up 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 8:
When dividing 50 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6980.51
If we subtract 31 from 50, we get 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 9:
If we divide 190 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6980.516
Subtracting 186 from 190 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
31 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6980.5161
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 11:
When dividing 90 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6980.51612
Subtracting 62 from 90 leaves us 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 12:
The number 31 fits into 280 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6980.516129
Deduct 279 from 280 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 13:
31 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6980.516129
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
31 can be fit into 100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6980.51612903
If we take 93 away from 100, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6980.51612903, and the remainder is 7e-09.
