916859 divided by 17 
We want to divide 916859 by 17.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 91 / 17

Step 2:
The number 17 fits into 91 5 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 85 from 91, we get 6.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 66 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 66 by 17, we get 3 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 51 from 66.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 158 / 17

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 158 by 17, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 539.0
Subtract 153 from 158 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 17

Step 5:
The number 17 fits into 55 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5393.0
Subtract 51 from 55 to get 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
17 goes into 49 2 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 53932.0
Subtracting 34 from 49 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 150 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 53932.8
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 136 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 140 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 53932.88
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 136 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 53932.88 and a remainder of 0.004.
