Let's divide 6959989 by 431
We're looking to find how many times 431 goes into 6959989.

On to step 1:
6 divided by 431 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 431

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 431 fits into 69 0 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 69, we get 69.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 69, then carry on: 695 / 431

Advancing to step 3:
431 can be fit into 695 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 264.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 431 from 695 leaves us with 264.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 264 and continue: 2649 / 431

Going ahead to step 4:
431 goes into 2649 6 times with a remainder of 63.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 2586 from 2649, we get 63.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 639 / 431

On to step 5:
When dividing 639 by 431, we get 1 with a remainder of 208.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 161.0
The remainder is 208 after subtracting 431 from 639.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 208, then carry on: 2088 / 431

Advancing to step 6:
431 can be fit into 2088 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 364.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1614.0
The remainder is 364 after subtracting 1724 from 2088.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 364 and repeat the process: 3649 / 431

Step 7:
431 can be fit into 3649 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 201.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16148.0
If we take 3448 away from 3649, we end up with 201.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2010, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
2010 divided by 431 is 4 with a remainder of 286.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16148.4
Subtracting 1724 from 2010 leaves us with 286.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2860, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
431 can be fit into 2860 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 274.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16148.46
If we subtract 2586 from 2860, we get 274.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2740, and continue the process.

Step 10:
431 goes into 2740 6 times with a remainder of 154.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16148.466
The remainder is 154 after subtracting 2586 from 2740.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 16148.466, and the remainder is 0.0154.
