Let's divide 398238 by 17
Our goal is to divide 398238 by 17.

Going ahead to step 1:
3 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 39 / 17

On to step 2:
When dividing 39 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 34 away from 39, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 17

Moving on to step 3:
17 can be fit into 58 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 51 from 58, we get 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
17 goes into 72 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 234.0
If we take 68 away from 72, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 43 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
17 goes into 43 2 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2342.0
Deduct 34 from 43 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 98 by 17, we get 5 and a remainder of 13.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23425.0
Subtracting 85 from 98 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 17 fits into 130 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23425.7
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 119 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
17 goes into 110 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23425.76
If we take 102 away from 110, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 9:
17 can be fit into 80 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23425.764
If we take 68 away from 80, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
120 divided by 17 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23425.7647
Deduct 119 from 120 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23425.7647
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 100 by 17, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23425.764705
Subtracting 85 from 100 leaves us 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.

Step 13:
17 goes into 150 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23425.7647058
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.

Advancing to step 14:
17 goes into 140 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23425.76470588
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 136 from 140.
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 23425.76470588, with a leftover of 4e-09.
