Let's divide 311427 by 71
We want to figure out the number of times 311427 can be divided by 71.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 71

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 311 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
71 goes into 311 4 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 284 from 311 and we're left with 27.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 274 / 71

Moving on to step 4:
The number 71 fits into 274 3 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43.0
Deduct 213 from 274 and we're left with 61.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 612 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 612 by 71, we get 8 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 438.0
Subtracting 568 from 612 leaves us with 44.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 447 / 71

Step 6:
71 goes into 447 6 times with a remainder of 21.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4386.0
If we take 426 away from 447, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
210 divided by 71 is 2 with a remainder of 68.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4386.2
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 142 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
71 can be fit into 680 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4386.29
Deduct 639 from 680 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 410 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4386.295
Deduct 355 from 410 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 71 fits into 550 7 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4386.2957
Subtract 497 from 550 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
71 goes into 530 7 times with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4386.29577
If we subtract 497 from 530, we get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4386.29577 with a balance of 3.3e-05.
