Let's divide 273684 by 34
Our goal is to divide 273684 by 34.

Going ahead to step 1:
34 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 34

On to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 34, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 273 / 34

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 273 by 34, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 272 away from 273, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 34

On to step 4:
When dividing 16 by 34, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 80.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 168 / 34

On to step 5:
The number 34 fits into 168 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 804.0
Subtracting 136 from 168 leaves us with 32.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 324 / 34

Step 6:
34 can be fit into 324 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8049.0
Deduct 306 from 324 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 34 fits into 180 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8049.5
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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 100 by 34, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8049.52
Deduct 68 from 100 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 34, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8049.529
Deduct 306 from 320 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 34 fits into 140 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8049.5294
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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 34 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8049.52941
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.

On to step 12:
The number 34 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8049.529411
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.

The final result is 8049.529411 with a remainder of 2.6e-06.
