We divide 34687 by 17
Our goal is to divide 34687 by 17.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 34 / 17

Step 2:
17 can be fit into 34 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 34 from 34, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 17

On to step 3:
When dividing 6 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 17

On to step 4:
17 goes into 68 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 204.0
Deduct 68 from 68 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 17

On to step 5:
17 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2040.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we 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.

Moving on to step 6:
The number 17 fits into 70 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2040.4
Subtract 68 from 70 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
20 divided by 17 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2040.41
Subtract 17 from 20 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 30 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2040.411
If we subtract 17 from 30, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2040.411 with a remaining 0.0013.
