42832 divided by 17 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 42832.

Step 1:
4 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 42 / 17

On to step 2:
17 can be fit into 42 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 34 from 42.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 17

Step 3:
The number 17 fits into 88 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtract 85 from 88 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 33 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 33 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 16.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 251.0
If we take 17 away from 33, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 162 / 17

Step 5:
If we divide 162 by 17, we get 9 and a remainder of 9.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2519.0
Subtract 153 from 162 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 90 by 17, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2519.5
If we take 85 away from 90, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2519.52
If we subtract 34 from 50, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
160 divided by 17 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2519.529
If we subtract 153 from 160, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 70 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2519.5294
Deduct 68 from 70 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
17 can be fit into 20 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2519.52941
Subtracting 17 from 20 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
17 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2519.529411
If we take 17 away from 30, we end up with 13.
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 2519.529411 with a balance of 1.3e-06.
