We divide 288540 by 34
Our goal is to divide 288540 by 34.

Step 1:
The number 34 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 34

Step 2:
If we divide 28 by 34, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 288 / 34

Going ahead to step 3:
34 goes into 288 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 272 from 288 and we're left with 16.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 165 / 34

Step 4:
When dividing 165 by 34, we get 4 with a remainder of 29.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 84.0
Subtract 136 from 165 to get 29.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 294 / 34

Step 5:
When dividing 294 by 34, we get 8 with a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 848.0
Subtract 272 from 294 to get 22.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 220 / 34

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 220 by 34, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8486.0
If we subtract 204 from 220, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 34 fits into 160 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8486.4
Subtract 136 from 160 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 240 by 34, we get 7 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8486.47
Subtracting 238 from 240 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 34 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8486.47
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 200 by 34, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8486.4705
Subtract 170 from 200 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
300 divided by 34 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8486.47058
Subtract 272 from 300 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 34 fits into 280 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8486.470588
Subtract 272 from 280 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8486.470588, and the remainder is 8e-07.
