We divide 997945 by 17
Our goal is to divide 997945 by 17.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 17 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 17

Moving on to step 2:
17 can be fit into 99 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 85 from 99.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 147 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 147 8 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 136 from 147 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 119 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
The number 17 fits into 119 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 587.0
If we subtract 119 from 119, we get 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 4 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5870.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
45 divided by 17 is 2 with a remainder of 11.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58702.0
Deduct 34 from 45 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 7:
110 divided by 17 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58702.6
If we subtract 102 from 110, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
17 goes into 80 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58702.64
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 68 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58702.647
If we subtract 119 from 120, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
17 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58702.647
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 17 fits into 100 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58702.64705
If we take 85 away from 100, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 150 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58702.647058
If we take 136 away from 150, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
17 can be fit into 140 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58702.6470588
Deduct 136 from 140 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 58702.6470588 with a remainder of 4e-08.
