We look at the division of 742848 by 34 
We want to divide 742848 by 34.

Going ahead to step 1:
34 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 34

Moving on to step 2:
34 can be fit into 74 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 68 from 74 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 62 / 34

Going ahead to step 3:
34 can be fit into 62 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 34 from 62 and we're left with 28.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 288 / 34

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 288 by 34, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 218.0
Deduct 272 from 288 and we're left with 16.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 164 / 34

Step 5:
The number 34 fits into 164 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2184.0
If we subtract 136 from 164, we get 28.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 288 / 34

Moving on to step 6:
34 can be fit into 288 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21848.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 272 from 288.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
34 can be fit into 160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 21848.4
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 136 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 240 by 34, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21848.47
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 238 from 240.
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 9:
The number 34 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21848.47
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 200 by 34, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21848.4705
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 170 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
34 goes into 300 8 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21848.47058
Deduct 272 from 300 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
280 divided by 34 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21848.470588
Subtracting 272 from 280 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 21848.470588 with a remaining 8e-07.
