299977 divided by 17 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 299977.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 17 from 29 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 129 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
129 divided by 17 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 119 from 129.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 109 / 17

Step 4:
17 can be fit into 109 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 176.0
Deduct 102 from 109 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 77 / 17

On to step 5:
17 can be fit into 77 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1764.0
If we take 68 away from 77, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
17 goes into 97 5 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17645.0
Subtract 85 from 97 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 120 by 17, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17645.7
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 8:
The number 17 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17645.7
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 17 fits into 100 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17645.705
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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 17 fits into 150 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17645.7058
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 11:
17 goes into 140 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17645.70588
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 17645.70588 with a remaining 4e-06.
