We divide 38435 by 17
Our goal is to divide 38435 by 17.

Advancing to step 1:
17 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 17

On to step 2:
If we divide 38 by 17, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 34 away from 38, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 44 / 17

Step 3:
17 goes into 44 2 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we subtract 34 from 44, we get 10.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 103 / 17

On to step 4:
103 divided by 17 is 6 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 226.0
Subtracting 102 from 103 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 17

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2260.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 6:
17 goes into 150 8 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2260.8
Subtract 136 from 150 to get 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 7:
140 divided by 17 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2260.88
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.

The final result is 2260.88 with a remainder of 0.004.
