We look at the division of 688461 by 34 
We want to figure out the number of times 688461 can be divided by 34.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 divided by 34 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 34

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 68 by 34, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 68 from 68.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 34

Step 3:
The number 34 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 84 / 34

Step 4:
34 can be fit into 84 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 202.0
Subtract 68 from 84 to get 16.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 166 / 34

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 166 by 34, we get 4 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2024.0
If we take 136 away from 166, we end up with 30.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 301 / 34

Step 6:
If we divide 301 by 34, we get 8 and a remainder of 29.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20248.0
If we subtract 272 from 301, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
290 divided by 34 is 8 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 20248.8
If we subtract 272 from 290, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 34 fits into 180 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 20248.85
If we take 170 away from 180, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
34 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20248.852
If we take 68 away from 100, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 320 by 34, we get 9 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20248.8529
If we take 306 away from 320, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 140 by 34, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20248.85294
Subtracting 136 from 140 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 34, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20248.852941
Deduct 34 from 40 and we're left with 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 13:
34 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 20248.8529411
If we subtract 34 from 60, we get 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 20248.8529411 with a remaining 2.6e-07.
