Let's divide 544121 by 31
We're looking to find how many times 31 goes into 544121.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 54 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 31 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 31 from 54 to get 23.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 234 / 31

Step 3:
If we divide 234 by 31, we get 7 and a remainder of 17.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 217 from 234 to get 17.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 171 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
171 divided by 31 is 5 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 175.0
Subtract 155 from 171 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 162 / 31

On to step 5:
The number 31 fits into 162 5 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1755.0
Subtract 155 from 162 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 71 / 31

On to step 6:
If we divide 71 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 9.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17552.0
If we take 62 away from 71, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 31 fits into 90 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17552.2
Subtract 62 from 90 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 31 fits into 280 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17552.29
If we subtract 279 from 280, we 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.

Step 9:
31 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17552.29
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.

Step 10:
When dividing 100 by 31, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17552.2903
Subtract 93 from 100 to get 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.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17552.29032
Subtracting 62 from 70 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
80 divided by 31 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17552.290322
If we take 62 away from 80, we end up with 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 quotient of the division is 17552.290322, and the remainder is 1.8e-06.
