We're dividing 33844588 by 496 
We're looking to find how many times 496 goes into 33844588.

Step 1:
The number 496 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 33 / 496

Let's proceed to step 2:
496 can be fit into 33 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 33, we get 33.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 338 / 496

Step 3:
If we divide 338 by 496, we get 0 and a remainder of 338.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 338 leaves us with 338.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 338 and continue with: 3384 / 496

On to step 4:
3384 divided by 496 is 6 with a remainder of 408.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 408 after subtracting 2976 from 3384.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 408 and continue with: 4084 / 496

Step 5:
4084 divided by 496 is 8 with a remainder of 116.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 3968 away from 4084, we end up with 116.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 116 and continue with: 1165 / 496

Step 6:
496 can be fit into 1165 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 173.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 682.0
Subtracting 992 from 1165 leaves us with 173.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 173, then repeat: 1738 / 496

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 1738 by 496, we get 3 with a remainder of 250.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6823.0
Subtracting 1488 from 1738 leaves us with 250.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 250 and continue with: 2508 / 496

Advancing to step 8:
496 can be fit into 2508 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 68235.0
If we take 2480 away from 2508, we end up 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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 280 by 496, we get 0 and a remainder of 280.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 68235.0
If we take 0 away from 280, we end up with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 2800 by 496, we get 5 and a remainder of 320.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68235.05
Subtracting 2480 from 2800 leaves us with 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 3200 by 496, we get 6 with a remainder of 224.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68235.056
If we subtract 2976 from 3200, we get 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 2240 by 496, we get 4 and a remainder of 256.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68235.0564
The remainder is 256 after subtracting 1984 from 2240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
2560 divided by 496 is 5 with a remainder of 80.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68235.05645
Subtracting 2480 from 2560 leaves us with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 800 by 496, we get 1 with a remainder of 304.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 68235.056451
Subtract 496 from 800 to get 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Step 15:
If we divide 3040 by 496, we get 6 and a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 68235.0564516
Subtracting 2976 from 3040 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 16:
When dividing 640 by 496, we get 1 with a remainder of 144.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 68235.05645161
If we subtract 496 from 640, we get 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 68235.05645161 and a remainder of 1.44e-07.
