Let's divide 1697172 by 506
We want to figure out the number of times 1697172 can be divided by 506.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 506 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 506

Moving on to step 2:
506 can be fit into 16 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 169 / 506

On to step 3:
506 can be fit into 169 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 169.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 169 leaves us with 169.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 169 and repeat the process: 1697 / 506

Step 4:
The number 506 fits into 1697 3 times, leaving a remainder of 179.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 179 after subtracting 1518 from 1697.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 179, then repeat: 1791 / 506

Advancing to step 5:
1791 divided by 506 is 3 with a remainder of 273.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtract 1518 from 1791 to get 273.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 273 and repeat the process: 2737 / 506

Let's proceed to step 6:
506 goes into 2737 5 times with a remainder of 207.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 335.0
If we subtract 2530 from 2737, we get 207.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 207 and repeat the process: 2072 / 506

On to step 7:
2072 divided by 506 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3354.0
If we take 2024 away from 2072, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 480 by 506, we get 0 and a remainder of 480.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3354.0
If we take 0 away from 480, we end up with 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
506 goes into 4800 9 times with a remainder of 246.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3354.09
The remainder is 246 after subtracting 4554 from 4800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
506 goes into 2460 4 times with a remainder of 436.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3354.094
The remainder is 436 after subtracting 2024 from 2460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 4360 by 506, we get 8 with a remainder of 312.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3354.0948
If we subtract 4048 from 4360, we get 312.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 3120 by 506, we get 6 with a remainder of 84.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3354.09486
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 3036 from 3120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
506 goes into 840 1 times with a remainder of 334.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3354.094861
Subtracting 506 from 840 leaves us with 334.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
506 goes into 3340 6 times with a remainder of 304.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3354.0948616
Deduct 3036 from 3340 and we're left with 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
506 goes into 3040 6 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3354.09486166
If we subtract 3036 from 3040, we get 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 result is 3354.09486166 with a remainder of 4e-09.
