We divide 859974 by 34
We want to figure out the number of times 859974 can be divided by 34.

Advancing to step 1:
34 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 85 / 34

On to step 2:
85 divided by 34 is 2 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 68 away from 85, we end up with 17.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 179 / 34

On to step 3:
34 can be fit into 179 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 170 from 179 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 99 / 34

Let's proceed to step 4:
34 goes into 99 2 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 252.0
Subtract 68 from 99 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 317 / 34

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 317 by 34, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2529.0
If we subtract 306 from 317, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 114 / 34

On to step 6:
When dividing 114 by 34, we get 3 with a remainder of 12.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25293.0
Deduct 102 from 114 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 120 by 34, we get 3 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 25293.3
Subtract 102 from 120 to 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:
180 divided by 34 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25293.35
If we subtract 170 from 180, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 100 by 34, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25293.352
Subtracting 68 from 100 leaves us 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.

On to step 10:
The number 34 fits into 320 9 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25293.3529
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 34 fits into 140 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25293.35294
Deduct 136 from 140 and we're left 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:
34 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25293.352941
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.

Moving on to step 13:
34 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25293.3529411
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 34 from 60.
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 25293.3529411 with a balance of 2.6e-07.
