We're dividing 340901 by 2 
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 340901.

Moving on to step 1:
2 can be fit into 3 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 2 from 3 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 2 fits into 14 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 14 away from 14, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 0 / 2

On to step 3:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 170.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 2

On to step 4:
9 divided by 2 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1704.0
If we take 8 away from 9, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 10 / 2

On to step 5:
10 divided by 2 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17045.0
If we take 10 away from 10, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 2

Step 6:
1 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170450.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 2 fits into 10 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170450.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 10 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170450.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
2 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 170450.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 170450.5, with a leftover of 0.0.
