We're dividing 989719 by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 989719 can be divided by 31.

Step 1:
The number 31 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 31

On to step 2:
31 can be fit into 98 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 93 from 98 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 59 / 31

On to step 3:
The number 31 fits into 59 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtract 31 from 59 to get 28.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 287 / 31

On to step 4:
When dividing 287 by 31, we get 9 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 279 from 287.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 81 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 81 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 19.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3192.0
Subtract 62 from 81 to get 19.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 199 / 31

Step 6:
199 divided by 31 is 6 with a remainder of 13.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31926.0
Deduct 186 from 199 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
130 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 31926.4
If we take 124 away from 130, we end up 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.

Step 8:
The number 31 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31926.41
Subtract 31 from 60 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
31 goes into 290 9 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31926.419
Subtracting 279 from 290 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
110 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31926.4193
Subtract 93 from 110 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 170 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31926.41935
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 12:
When dividing 150 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 31926.419354
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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 260 by 31, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31926.4193548
Subtract 248 from 260 to get 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 14:
If we divide 120 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31926.41935483
Subtracting 93 from 120 leaves us 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.

The final outcome is 31926.41935483, with a leftover of 2.7e-08.
