We look at the division of 6996948 by 217 
We want to figure out the number of times 6996948 can be divided by 217.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 217 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 217

Advancing to step 2:
217 can be fit into 69 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 69, we end up with 69.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 69 and continue: 699 / 217

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 217 fits into 699 3 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 651 from 699.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 486 / 217

On to step 4:
When dividing 486 by 217, we get 2 with a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we take 434 away from 486, we end up with 52.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 529 / 217

Let's proceed to step 5:
217 can be fit into 529 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 322.0
Deduct 434 from 529 and we're left with 95.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 95 and repeat the process: 954 / 217

Step 6:
If we divide 954 by 217, we get 4 and a remainder of 86.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3224.0
Subtract 868 from 954 to get 86.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 86 and continue with: 868 / 217

Going ahead to step 7:
868 divided by 217 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32244.0
If we take 868 away from 868, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 217, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32244.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 0 by 217, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32244.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 32244.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
