16986505 divided by 247 
Let's see how many times 247 fits into 16986505.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 247 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 247

Moving on to step 2:
247 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 169 / 247

Moving on to step 3:
The number 247 fits into 169 0 times, leaving a remainder of 169.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 169 and we're left with 169.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 169, then repeat: 1698 / 247

Let's proceed to step 4:
1698 divided by 247 is 6 with a remainder of 216.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 1482 from 1698 to get 216.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 216, then repeat: 2166 / 247

Moving on to step 5:
2166 divided by 247 is 8 with a remainder of 190.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
Subtract 1976 from 2166 to get 190.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 190 and repeat the process: 1905 / 247

Moving on to step 6:
1905 divided by 247 is 7 with a remainder of 176.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 687.0
The remainder is 176 after subtracting 1729 from 1905.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 176, then repeat: 1760 / 247

Step 7:
If we divide 1760 by 247, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6877.0
Deduct 1729 from 1760 and we're left with 31.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 315 / 247

On to step 8:
If we divide 315 by 247, we get 1 and a remainder of 68.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68771.0
Subtracting 247 from 315 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
247 can be fit into 680 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 186.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 68771.2
The remainder is 186 after subtracting 494 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1860 by 247, we get 7 with a remainder of 131.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 68771.27
The remainder is 131 after subtracting 1729 from 1860.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 1310 by 247, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 68771.275
Subtracting 1235 from 1310 leaves us with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
247 goes into 750 3 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 68771.2753
Deduct 741 from 750 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 90 by 247, we get 0 with a remainder of 90.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 68771.2753
If we take 0 away from 90, we end up with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
247 can be fit into 900 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 159.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68771.275303
Subtracting 741 from 900 leaves us with 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1590, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 1590 by 247, we get 6 with a remainder of 108.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 68771.2753036
Subtracting 1482 from 1590 leaves us with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

Step 16:
The number 247 fits into 1080 4 times, leaving a remainder of 92.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 68771.27530364
If we take 988 away from 1080, we end up with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 68771.27530364, with a leftover of 9.2e-08.
