Let's divide 468872 by 34
We want to divide 468872 by 34.

Moving on to step 1:
34 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 34

Let's proceed to step 2:
34 goes into 46 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 34 from 46 leaves us with 12.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 128 / 34

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 128 by 34, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 102 away from 128, we end up with 26.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 268 / 34

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 34 fits into 268 7 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 137.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 238 from 268.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 307 / 34

Advancing to step 5:
34 can be fit into 307 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1379.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 306 from 307.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 34

On to step 6:
When dividing 12 by 34, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13790.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
120 divided by 34 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13790.3
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 102 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
34 can be fit into 180 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13790.35
If we subtract 170 from 180, we get 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 9:
34 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13790.352
Deduct 68 from 100 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
34 goes into 320 9 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13790.3529
Subtract 306 from 320 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 140 by 34, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13790.35294
If we take 136 away from 140, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 34, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 13790.352941
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 34 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
34 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13790.3529411
Deduct 34 from 60 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Our division results in 13790.3529411 with a remaining 2.6e-07.
