We look at the division of 599861 by 31 
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 599861.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 31 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 59 / 31

On to step 2:
59 divided by 31 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 31 away from 59, we end up with 28.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 289 / 31

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 31 fits into 289 9 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 279 from 289 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 108 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 108 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 15.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 193.0
Deduct 93 from 108 and we're left with 15.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 156 / 31

On to step 5:
31 can be fit into 156 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1935.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 155 from 156.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 31

Advancing to step 6:
31 can be fit into 11 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19350.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19350.3
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.

Moving on to step 8:
170 divided by 31 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19350.35
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 155 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 31 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19350.354
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 260 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19350.3548
If we take 248 away from 260, we end up with 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 11:
If we divide 120 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19350.35483
If we take 93 away from 120, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
31 can be fit into 270 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19350.354838
If we subtract 248 from 270, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
220 divided by 31 is 7 with a remainder of 3.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19350.3548387
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 217 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
31 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19350.3548387
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up 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.

The final result is 19350.3548387 with a remainder of 3e-08.
