We look at the division of 284638 by 17 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 284638.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 17

Advancing to step 2:
The number 17 fits into 28 1 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 17 from 28 and we're left with 11.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 114 / 17

Moving on to step 3:
17 can be fit into 114 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 102 from 114 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 126 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 126 by 17, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 167.0
Subtracting 119 from 126 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 73 / 17

Going ahead to step 5:
73 divided by 17 is 4 with a remainder of 5.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1674.0
Subtract 68 from 73 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 17

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 58 by 17, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16743.0
Deduct 51 from 58 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
17 goes into 70 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16743.4
If we subtract 68 from 70, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16743.41
Subtract 17 from 20 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 30 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16743.411
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 17 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16743.411 with a balance of 0.0013.
