We divide 297357 by 31
Our goal is to divide 297357 by 31.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 31 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 31

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 297 / 31

On to step 3:
If we divide 297 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 279 away from 297, we end up with 18.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 183 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
31 goes into 183 5 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 95.0
Subtracting 155 from 183 leaves us with 28.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 285 / 31

On to step 5:
The number 31 fits into 285 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 959.0
Deduct 279 from 285 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 67 / 31

Moving on to step 6:
The number 31 fits into 67 2 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9592.0
If we take 62 away from 67, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9592.1
Deduct 31 from 50 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
31 can be fit into 190 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9592.16
Deduct 186 from 190 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 40 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9592.161
If we take 31 away from 40, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 90 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9592.1612
Deduct 62 from 90 and we're left with 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 11:
31 goes into 280 9 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9592.16129
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 279 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
31 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9592.16129
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 100 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9592.1612903
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.

On to step 14:
31 goes into 70 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9592.16129032
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 62 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 9592.16129032 with a remainder of 8e-09.
