We look at the division of 127698 by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 127698 can be divided by 31.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
31 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 127 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
127 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 124 from 127 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 36 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 36 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 41.0
Subtract 31 from 36 to get 5.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 59 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
59 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 411.0
Subtracting 31 from 59 leaves us with 28.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 288 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 31 fits into 288 9 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4119.0
Subtracting 279 from 288 leaves us 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 7:
31 can be fit into 90 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4119.2
If we subtract 62 from 90, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
280 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4119.29
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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 10 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4119.29
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
31 can be fit into 100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4119.2903
If we subtract 93 from 100, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 31 fits into 70 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4119.29032
If we take 62 away from 70, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
31 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4119.290322
Subtracting 62 from 80 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4119.290322, and the remainder is 1.8e-06.
