Let's divide 18464 by 31
We want to divide 18464 by 31.

On to step 1:
31 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 31

Going ahead to step 2:
31 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 184 / 31

Let's proceed to step 3:
31 can be fit into 184 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 155 from 184 and we're left with 29.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 296 / 31

Let's proceed to step 4:
296 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Deduct 279 from 296 and we're left with 17.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 174 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 174 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 19.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 595.0
Deduct 155 from 174 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
The number 31 fits into 190 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 595.6
If we subtract 186 from 190, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
31 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 595.61
Subtracting 31 from 40 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 8:
31 goes into 90 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 595.612
Deduct 62 from 90 and we're left 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 9:
31 goes into 280 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 595.6129
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
31 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 595.6129
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

On to step 11:
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: 595.612903
Deduct 93 from 100 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 70 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 595.6129032
Deduct 62 from 70 and we're left 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 13:
31 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 595.61290322
Subtract 62 from 80 to 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 595.61290322 with a remainder of 1.8e-08.
