163817 divided by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 163817 can be divided by 31.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
16 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 0 from 16.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 163 / 31

Let's proceed to step 3:
163 divided by 31 is 5 with a remainder of 8.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 155 from 163, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 31

On to step 4:
When dividing 88 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we subtract 62 from 88, we get 26.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 261 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
31 goes into 261 8 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 528.0
If we subtract 248 from 261, we get 13.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 137 / 31

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 137 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5284.0
Deduct 124 from 137 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
130 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5284.4
Deduct 124 from 130 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5284.41
Deduct 31 from 60 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
31 goes into 290 9 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5284.419
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 279 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 110 3 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5284.4193
Subtract 93 from 110 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
31 goes into 170 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5284.41935
If we take 155 away from 170, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
31 can be fit into 150 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5284.419354
If we take 124 away from 150, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 31 fits into 260 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5284.4193548
If we subtract 248 from 260, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5284.41935483
Subtract 93 from 120 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5284.41935483, and the remainder is 2.7e-08.
