We divide 724282 by 34
We want to divide 724282 by 34.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 34, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 34

Moving on to step 2:
72 divided by 34 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 68 from 72 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 44 / 34

Step 3:
34 goes into 44 1 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 34 from 44 leaves us with 10.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 102 / 34

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 34 fits into 102 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 213.0
Subtract 102 from 102 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 34

Step 5:
34 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2130.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 82 / 34

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 34 fits into 82 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21302.0
If we subtract 68 from 82, we 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 34 fits into 140 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21302.4
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 136 from 140.
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 8:
When dividing 40 by 34, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21302.41
Subtract 34 from 40 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 34 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21302.411
If we take 34 away from 60, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 21302.411 with a balance of 0.0026.
