We look at the division of 55917379 by 31 
Let's see how many times 31 fits into 55917379.

Advancing to step 1:
31 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 31

On to step 2:
31 goes into 55 1 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 31 from 55 to get 24.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 249 / 31

Advancing to step 3:
31 can be fit into 249 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 248 from 249 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
31 goes into 11 0 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 180.0
If we take 0 away from 11, we end up with 11.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 117 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 117 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1803.0
Subtracting 93 from 117 leaves us with 24.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 243 / 31

Moving on to step 6:
31 goes into 243 7 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18037.0
Deduct 217 from 243 and we're left with 26.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 267 / 31

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 31 fits into 267 8 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 180378.0
If we take 248 away from 267, we end up with 19.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 199 / 31

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 31 fits into 199 6 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1803786.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 186 from 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 130 by 31, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1803786.4
Deduct 124 from 130 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 60 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1803786.41
Subtracting 31 from 60 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 290 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1803786.419
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 279 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 110 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1803786.4193
Deduct 93 from 110 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 31 fits into 170 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1803786.41935
Subtracting 155 from 170 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
31 goes into 150 4 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1803786.419354
Deduct 124 from 150 and we're left 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.

Step 15:
260 divided by 31 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1803786.4193548
Deduct 248 from 260 and we're left 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.

On to step 16:
120 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1803786.41935483
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.

After the division, we end up with 1803786.41935483 and a remainder of 2.7e-08.
