We look at the division of 34872029 by 856 
We're looking to find how many times 856 goes into 34872029.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 856, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 34 / 856

Step 2:
856 can be fit into 34 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 34 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 348 / 856

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 348 by 856, we get 0 with a remainder of 348.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 348 leaves us with 348.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 348, then repeat: 3487 / 856

Step 4:
856 goes into 3487 4 times with a remainder of 63.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 3424 from 3487 and we're left with 63.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 63 and continue: 632 / 856

On to step 5:
When dividing 632 by 856, we get 0 with a remainder of 632.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtracting 0 from 632 leaves us with 632.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 632 and repeat the process: 6320 / 856

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 856 fits into 6320 7 times, leaving a remainder of 328.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 407.0
The remainder is 328 after subtracting 5992 from 6320.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 328, then carry on: 3282 / 856

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 3282 by 856, we get 3 with a remainder of 714.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4073.0
If we take 2568 away from 3282, we end up with 714.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 714 and continue: 7149 / 856

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 7149 by 856, we get 8 with a remainder of 301.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40738.0
If we subtract 6848 from 7149, we get 301.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3010, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 3010 by 856, we get 3 with a remainder of 442.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40738.3
Subtracting 2568 from 3010 leaves us with 442.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 4420 by 856, we get 5 and a remainder of 140.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40738.35
The remainder is 140 after subtracting 4280 from 4420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 856 fits into 1400 1 times, leaving a remainder of 544.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40738.351
If we take 856 away from 1400, we end up with 544.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
856 can be fit into 5440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 304.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 40738.3516
If we take 5136 away from 5440, we end up with 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 856 fits into 3040 3 times, leaving a remainder of 472.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40738.35163
If we take 2568 away from 3040, we end up with 472.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
4720 divided by 856 is 5 with a remainder of 440.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40738.351635
If we take 4280 away from 4720, we end up with 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4400, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
856 goes into 4400 5 times with a remainder of 120.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40738.3516355
If we take 4280 away from 4400, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 40738.3516355, and the remainder is 1.2e-06.
