Let's divide 689870 by 31
We want to divide 689870 by 31.

Moving on to step 1:
31 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 68 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
68 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 62 from 68 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 31

Let's proceed to step 3:
31 goes into 69 2 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtracting 62 from 69 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
31 goes into 78 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 222.0
Subtracting 62 from 78 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 167 / 31

On to step 5:
If we divide 167 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2225.0
If we subtract 155 from 167, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 120 / 31

Step 6:
If we divide 120 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 22253.0
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.

Step 7:
The number 31 fits into 270 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22253.8
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 248 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 8:
220 divided by 31 is 7 with a remainder of 3.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22253.87
Subtract 217 from 220 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 9:
31 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22253.87
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 300 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 22253.8709
Subtract 279 from 300 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 210 by 31, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22253.87096
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 186 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 240 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22253.870967
Subtract 217 from 240 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
230 divided by 31 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22253.8709677
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 217 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 22253.8709677 with a balance of 1.3e-07.
