We're dividing 655497 by 17 
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 655497.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 17 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
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 65 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 65 by 17, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 51 from 65.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 145 / 17

On to step 3:
17 can be fit into 145 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
Subtracting 136 from 145 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 94 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 94 by 17, we get 5 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 385.0
Deduct 85 from 94 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 99 / 17

Step 5:
99 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3855.0
If we take 85 away from 99, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 147 / 17

Step 6:
17 can be fit into 147 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38558.0
If we subtract 136 from 147, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
17 goes into 110 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38558.6
Subtract 102 from 110 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
17 can be fit into 80 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38558.64
If we take 68 away from 80, 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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38558.647
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 119 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 10 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38558.647
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
100 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38558.64705
If we subtract 85 from 100, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38558.647058
If we subtract 136 from 150, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
17 can be fit into 140 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38558.6470588
If we take 136 away from 140, we end up 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 result is 38558.6470588 with a remainder of 4e-08.
