We're dividing 284457 by 82 
We want to divide 284457 by 82.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 82 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 82

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 284 / 82

On to step 3:
82 can be fit into 284 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 246 from 284 to get 38.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 384 / 82

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 384 by 82, we get 4 and a remainder of 56.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtract 328 from 384 to get 56.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 56, then repeat: 565 / 82

Advancing to step 5:
82 can be fit into 565 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 346.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 492 from 565.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 737 / 82

Advancing to step 6:
737 divided by 82 is 8 with a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3468.0
If we take 656 away from 737, we end up with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
810 divided by 82 is 9 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3468.9
If we subtract 738 from 810, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 720 by 82, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3468.98
If we take 656 away from 720, we end up 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.

On to step 9:
The number 82 fits into 640 7 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3468.987
Deduct 574 from 640 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 660 by 82, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3468.9878
If we subtract 656 from 660, we get 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 11:
The number 82 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3468.9878
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 82, we get 4 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3468.987804
Deduct 328 from 400 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 82 fits into 720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3468.9878048
Subtracting 656 from 720 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 640 by 82, we get 7 with a remainder of 66.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3468.98780487
If we take 574 away from 640, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3468.98780487 with a balance of 6.6e-08.
