208605 divided by 17 
Our goal is to divide 208605 by 17.

On to step 1:
The number 17 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 17

On to step 2:
20 divided by 17 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 17 from 20 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 17

Step 3:
If we divide 38 by 17, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 34 from 38.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 17

Let's proceed to step 4:
17 can be fit into 46 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 122.0
Subtract 34 from 46 to get 12.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 120 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
120 divided by 17 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1227.0
Deduct 119 from 120 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 17

On to step 6:
17 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12270.0
If we subtract 0 from 15, 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 7:
The number 17 fits into 150 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12270.8
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.

Step 8:
The number 17 fits into 140 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12270.88
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 136 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12270.88, and the remainder is 0.004.
