We look at the division of 999883 by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 999883 can be divided by 31.

Moving on to 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
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
99 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 93 from 99 to get 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 31

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 69 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 32.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 62 from 69.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 78 / 31

Step 4:
The number 31 fits into 78 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 322.0
Subtracting 62 from 78 leaves us with 16.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 168 / 31

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 168 by 31, we get 5 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3225.0
Subtract 155 from 168 to get 13.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 133 / 31

Going ahead to step 6:
31 can be fit into 133 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32254.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 124 from 133.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32254.2
Subtracting 62 from 90 leaves us 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 8:
If we divide 280 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32254.29
Subtract 279 from 280 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
31 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 32254.29
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
100 divided by 31 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32254.2903
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 11:
70 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32254.29032
If we subtract 62 from 70, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
31 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32254.290322
If we subtract 62 from 80, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The final result is 32254.290322 with a remainder of 1.8e-06.
