We look at the division of 883505 by 17 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 883505.

Step 1:
8 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 17

Step 2:
The number 17 fits into 88 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 85 from 88, we get 3.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 33 / 17

Advancing to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 33 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 51.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 17 from 33.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 165 / 17

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 165 by 17, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 519.0
If we take 153 away from 165, we end up with 12.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 120 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 120 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5197.0
Subtracting 119 from 120 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 17

Step 6:
15 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51970.0
If we take 0 away from 15, 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 150 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51970.8
Subtract 136 from 150 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 140 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51970.88
If we subtract 136 from 140, we get 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 outcome is 51970.88, with a leftover of 0.004.
