We're dividing 344474 by 9 
Let's see how many times 9 fits into 344474.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 9, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 9

Step 2:
34 divided by 9 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 27 away from 34, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 9

On to step 3:
The number 9 fits into 74 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 38.0
Subtract 72 from 74 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 9

Going ahead to step 4:
9 can be fit into 24 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 382.0
Subtracting 18 from 24 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 67 / 9

Step 5:
9 can be fit into 67 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3827.0
Deduct 63 from 67 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 9

On to step 6:
The number 9 fits into 44 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38274.0
Subtract 36 from 44 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 80 by 9, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38274.8
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 9, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38274.88
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 38274.88 with a balance of 0.008.
