We divide 468874 by 31
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 468874.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 46 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 31 away from 46, we end up with 15.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 158 / 31

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 158 by 31, we get 5 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 155 from 158, we get 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 38 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 151.0
Subtracting 31 from 38 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
77 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1512.0
If we subtract 62 from 77, we get 15.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 154 / 31

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 31 fits into 154 4 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15124.0
If we subtract 124 from 154, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 7:
31 can be fit into 300 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15124.9
If we subtract 279 from 300, we 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.

On to step 8:
31 can be fit into 210 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15124.96
If we subtract 186 from 210, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 31 fits into 240 7 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15124.967
Deduct 217 from 240 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
31 goes into 230 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15124.9677
Subtract 217 from 230 to get 13.
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 15124.9677 with a balance of 0.00013.
