148412 ÷ 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 148412 can be divided by 31.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
14 divided by 31 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 148 / 31

Let's proceed to step 3:
31 goes into 148 4 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 124 from 148 to get 24.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 244 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
31 goes into 244 7 times with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we take 217 away from 244, we end up with 27.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 271 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 271 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 23.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 478.0
Subtracting 248 from 271 leaves us with 23.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 232 / 31

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 232 by 31, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4787.0
Subtracting 217 from 232 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 7:
The number 31 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4787.4
Subtracting 124 from 150 leaves us 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 8:
If we divide 260 by 31, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4787.48
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.

Advancing to step 9:
31 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4787.483
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.

Step 10:
31 goes into 270 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4787.4838
Subtracting 248 from 270 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 220 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4787.48387
Subtracting 217 from 220 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 12:
31 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4787.48387
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 300 by 31, we get 9 with a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4787.4838709
Deduct 279 from 300 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 210 by 31, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4787.48387096
Subtract 186 from 210 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 4787.48387096, and the remainder is 2.4e-08.
