We're dividing 31960097 by 431 
We want to divide 31960097 by 431.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 431, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 431

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 divided by 431 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 319 / 431

Advancing to step 3:
431 goes into 319 0 times with a remainder of 319.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 319 leaves us with 319.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 319, then carry on: 3196 / 431

Moving on to step 4:
431 can be fit into 3196 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 179.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 3017 away from 3196, we end up with 179.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 179, then repeat: 1790 / 431

On to step 5:
When dividing 1790 by 431, we get 4 with a remainder of 66.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74.0
If we subtract 1724 from 1790, we get 66.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 66 and continue with: 660 / 431

On to step 6:
660 divided by 431 is 1 with a remainder of 229.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 741.0
If we take 431 away from 660, we end up with 229.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 229 and continue with: 2299 / 431

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 2299 by 431, we get 5 with a remainder of 144.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7415.0
If we take 2155 away from 2299, we end up with 144.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 144, then carry on: 1447 / 431

Step 8:
When dividing 1447 by 431, we get 3 with a remainder of 154.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 74153.0
Subtract 1293 from 1447 to get 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 431 fits into 1540 3 times, leaving a remainder of 247.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74153.3
The remainder is 247 after subtracting 1293 from 1540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 2470 by 431, we get 5 and a remainder of 315.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74153.35
Subtracting 2155 from 2470 leaves us with 315.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 3150 by 431, we get 7 with a remainder of 133.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 74153.357
Deduct 3017 from 3150 and we're left with 133.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
431 can be fit into 1330 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74153.3573
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 1293 from 1330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
370 divided by 431 is 0 with a remainder of 370.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74153.3573
Subtract 0 from 370 to get 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 3700 by 431, we get 8 with a remainder of 252.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74153.357308
The remainder is 252 after subtracting 3448 from 3700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
431 goes into 2520 5 times with a remainder of 365.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74153.3573085
Subtracting 2155 from 2520 leaves us with 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
When dividing 3650 by 431, we get 8 with a remainder of 202.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74153.35730858
Subtracting 3448 from 3650 leaves us with 202.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2020, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 74153.35730858, and the remainder is 2.02e-07.
