12464 ÷ 31 
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 12464.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 31, we get 0 and 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 (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 31

Step 2:
The number 31 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 124 / 31

Step 3:
If we divide 124 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 124 from 124, we get 0.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
6 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
31 can be fit into 64 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 402.0
Deduct 62 from 64 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
31 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 402.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
31 goes into 200 6 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 402.06
Subtract 186 from 200 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
140 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 402.064
If we take 124 away from 140, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 160 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 402.0645
Subtract 155 from 160 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 50 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 402.06451
If we take 31 away from 50, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
31 can be fit into 190 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 402.064516
If we subtract 186 from 190, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 31 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 402.0645161
Subtracting 31 from 40 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 31 fits into 90 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 402.06451612
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.

Our division results in 402.06451612 with a remaining 2.8e-08.
