179623 divided by 31 
We want to figure out the number of times 179623 can be divided by 31.

On to step 1:
The number 31 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 31

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 31, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 179 / 31

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 179 by 31, we get 5 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 155 from 179 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 246 / 31

On to step 4:
The number 31 fits into 246 7 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we subtract 217 from 246, we get 29.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 292 / 31

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 292 by 31, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 579.0
Subtract 279 from 292 to get 13.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 133 / 31

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 133 by 31, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5794.0
Subtract 124 from 133 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 90 by 31, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5794.2
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 62 from 90.
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:
31 goes into 280 9 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5794.29
Subtracting 279 from 280 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
31 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5794.29
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 31 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5794.2903
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:
If we divide 70 by 31, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5794.29032
Subtract 62 from 70 to 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.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5794.290322
Subtracting 62 from 80 leaves us 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 final outcome is 5794.290322, with a leftover of 1.8e-06.
