We're dividing 888072 by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 888072 can be divided by 31.

Advancing to step 1:
31 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 88 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 62 from 88 to get 26.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 268 / 31

Let's proceed to step 3:
31 can be fit into 268 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 248 from 268, we get 20.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 200 / 31

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 200 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 286.0
Subtract 186 from 200 to get 14.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 147 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
31 can be fit into 147 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2864.0
If we take 124 away from 147, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 232 / 31

Going ahead to step 6:
232 divided by 31 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28647.0
Subtract 217 from 232 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 31 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28647.4
Subtract 124 from 150 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
31 can be fit into 260 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28647.48
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 248 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 120 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28647.483
Deduct 93 from 120 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 270 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28647.4838
If we subtract 248 from 270, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
31 goes into 220 7 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 28647.48387
Subtract 217 from 220 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
31 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28647.48387
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 31 fits into 300 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28647.4838709
If we take 279 away from 300, we end up 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.

On to step 14:
The number 31 fits into 210 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 28647.48387096
Deduct 186 from 210 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 28647.48387096 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
