16959698 divided by 997 
Let's see how many times 997 fits into 16959698.

On to step 1:
997 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 997

Advancing to step 2:
16 divided by 997 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 997

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 169 by 997, we get 0 and a remainder of 169.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 169 after subtracting 0 from 169.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 169 and repeat the process: 1695 / 997

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 1695 by 997, we get 1 and a remainder of 698.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 997 from 1695 and we're left with 698.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 698 and continue: 6989 / 997

Going ahead to step 5:
997 can be fit into 6989 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 6979 from 6989 and we're left with 10.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 106 / 997

Moving on to step 6:
997 can be fit into 106 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 106.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 170.0
Subtract 0 from 106 to get 106.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 106 and repeat the process: 1069 / 997

On to step 7:
When dividing 1069 by 997, we get 1 with a remainder of 72.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1701.0
If we subtract 997 from 1069, we get 72.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 728 / 997

Moving on to step 8:
The number 997 fits into 728 0 times, leaving a remainder of 728.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17010.0
If we take 0 away from 728, we end up with 728.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 997 fits into 7280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 301.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17010.7
The remainder is 301 after subtracting 6979 from 7280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3010, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 997 fits into 3010 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 17010.73
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 2991 from 3010.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
997 goes into 190 0 times with a remainder of 190.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17010.73
If we subtract 0 from 190, we get 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 1900 by 997, we get 1 with a remainder of 903.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17010.7301
The remainder is 903 after subtracting 997 from 1900.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9030, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 9030 by 997, we get 9 with a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 17010.73019
Subtracting 8973 from 9030 leaves us with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
997 can be fit into 570 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 570.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17010.73019
Subtract 0 from 570 to get 570.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
997 can be fit into 5700 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 715.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17010.7301905
Deduct 4985 from 5700 and we're left with 715.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
7150 divided by 997 is 7 with a remainder of 171.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17010.73019057
If we subtract 6979 from 7150, we get 171.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1710, and continue the process.

The final result is 17010.73019057 with a remainder of 1.71e-07.
