We're dividing 31279487 by 525 
We're looking to find how many times 525 goes into 31279487.

Advancing to step 1:
525 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 525

On to step 2:
The number 525 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 31 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 312 / 525

Step 3:
525 goes into 312 0 times with a remainder of 312.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 312 and we're left with 312.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 312 and repeat the process: 3127 / 525

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 3127 by 525, we get 5 and a remainder of 502.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 2625 from 3127, we get 502.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 502 and continue: 5029 / 525

Going ahead to step 5:
525 can be fit into 5029 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 304.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59.0
Deduct 4725 from 5029 and we're left with 304.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 304 and repeat the process: 3044 / 525

Step 6:
525 goes into 3044 5 times with a remainder of 419.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 595.0
Deduct 2625 from 3044 and we're left with 419.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 419 and repeat the process: 4198 / 525

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 4198 by 525, we get 7 and a remainder of 523.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5957.0
Deduct 3675 from 4198 and we're left with 523.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 523, then repeat: 5237 / 525

Step 8:
The number 525 fits into 5237 9 times, leaving a remainder of 512.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59579.0
Subtract 4725 from 5237 to get 512.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
525 can be fit into 5120 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 395.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59579.9
Subtracting 4725 from 5120 leaves us with 395.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3950, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 3950 by 525, we get 7 and a remainder of 275.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59579.97
If we subtract 3675 from 3950, we get 275.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2750, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 2750 by 525, we get 5 and a remainder of 125.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59579.975
If we subtract 2625 from 2750, we get 125.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1250, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
525 can be fit into 1250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 200.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59579.9752
Subtract 1050 from 1250 to get 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 2000 by 525, we get 3 with a remainder of 425.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 59579.97523
If we subtract 1575 from 2000, we get 425.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 525 fits into 4250 8 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59579.975238
Subtract 4200 from 4250 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 15:
525 can be fit into 500 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 500.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 59579.975238
Subtract 0 from 500 to get 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
When dividing 5000 by 525, we get 9 with a remainder of 275.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59579.97523809
Deduct 4725 from 5000 and we're left with 275.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2750, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 59579.97523809, with a leftover of 2.75e-07.
