We divide 794371 by 17
We want to divide 794371 by 17.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 17 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
17 can be fit into 79 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 68 from 79 leaves us with 11.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 114 / 17

On to step 3:
If we divide 114 by 17, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 102 from 114, we get 12.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 123 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 123 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 467.0
Subtracting 119 from 123 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 47 2 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4672.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 34 from 47.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 131 / 17

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 131 by 17, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46727.0
If we take 119 away from 131, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
120 divided by 17 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46727.7
Subtracting 119 from 120 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 10 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 46727.7
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 100 by 17, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46727.705
Subtracting 85 from 100 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 10:
When dividing 150 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46727.7058
If we take 136 away from 150, we end up 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.

Step 11:
When dividing 140 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46727.70588
Subtracting 136 from 140 leaves us 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 outcome is 46727.70588, with a leftover of 4e-06.
