We're dividing 18206 by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 18206 can be divided by 31.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 31

Step 2:
18 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 18 leaves us with 18.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 182 / 31

On to step 3:
31 goes into 182 5 times with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 155 from 182 and we're left with 27.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 270 / 31

On to step 4:
When dividing 270 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 248 from 270.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 226 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
31 can be fit into 226 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 587.0
Subtract 217 from 226 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 31 fits into 90 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 587.2
Subtract 62 from 90 to 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.

On to step 7:
The number 31 fits into 280 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 587.29
Subtracting 279 from 280 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 10 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 587.29
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
100 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 587.2903
If we take 93 away from 100, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 70 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 587.29032
Subtracting 62 from 70 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 11:
31 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 587.290322
If we take 62 away from 80, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Our division results in 587.290322 with a remaining 1.8e-06.
