Let's divide 17017538 by 280
We want to divide 17017538 by 280.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 280, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 280

Let's proceed to step 2:
280 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 170 / 280

Advancing to step 3:
The number 280 fits into 170 0 times, leaving a remainder of 170.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 170 and we're left with 170.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 170 and continue with: 1701 / 280

Step 4:
1701 divided by 280 is 6 with a remainder of 21.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 1680 away from 1701, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 217 / 280

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 217 by 280, we get 0 with a remainder of 217.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60.0
The remainder is 217 after subtracting 0 from 217.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 217, then repeat: 2175 / 280

On to step 6:
2175 divided by 280 is 7 with a remainder of 215.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 607.0
If we subtract 1960 from 2175, we get 215.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 215 and repeat the process: 2153 / 280

Step 7:
2153 divided by 280 is 7 with a remainder of 193.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6077.0
If we subtract 1960 from 2153, we get 193.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 193, then repeat: 1938 / 280

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 1938 by 280, we get 6 and a remainder of 258.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60776.0
Deduct 1680 from 1938 and we're left with 258.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 280 fits into 2580 9 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 60776.9
Deduct 2520 from 2580 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 10:
280 can be fit into 600 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 60776.92
Subtracting 560 from 600 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
280 can be fit into 400 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 120.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60776.921
If we take 280 away from 400, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 1200 by 280, we get 4 and a remainder of 80.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60776.9214
If we take 1120 away from 1200, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 800 by 280, we get 2 with a remainder of 240.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 60776.92142
Subtracting 560 from 800 leaves us with 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Step 14:
280 can be fit into 2400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 160.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60776.921428
The remainder is 160 after subtracting 2240 from 2400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 1600 by 280, we get 5 and a remainder of 200.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 60776.9214285
The remainder is 200 after subtracting 1400 from 1600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
When dividing 2000 by 280, we get 7 with a remainder of 40.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60776.92142857
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 1960 from 2000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final result is 60776.92142857 with a remainder of 4e-08.
