We look at the division of 49480 by 17 
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 49480.

Advancing to step 1:
17 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
17 goes into 49 2 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 34 from 49, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 154 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
17 goes into 154 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 153 from 154 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
17 can be fit into 18 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 291.0
If we subtract 17 from 18, we get 1.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 10 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2910.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 6:
17 can be fit into 100 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2910.5
Deduct 85 from 100 and we're left 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.

On to step 7:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2910.58
Subtracting 136 from 150 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
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: 2910.588
Subtracting 136 from 140 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 2910.588 with a remaining 0.0004.
