Let's divide 400834 by 17
We want to figure out the number of times 400834 can be divided by 17.

On to step 1:
17 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 17

On to step 2:
The number 17 fits into 40 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 34 from 40.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 60 / 17

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 60 by 17, we get 3 and a remainder of 9.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23.0
Deduct 51 from 60 and we're left with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 17

On to step 4:
The number 17 fits into 98 5 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 235.0
Subtract 85 from 98 to get 13.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 133 / 17

On to step 5:
17 can be fit into 133 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2357.0
If we subtract 119 from 133, we get 14.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 144 / 17

On to step 6:
If we divide 144 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23578.0
Deduct 136 from 144 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
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: 23578.4
If we subtract 68 from 80, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
17 can be fit into 120 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23578.47
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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 10 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23578.47
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 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 10:
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: 23578.4705
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.

Moving on to step 11:
150 divided by 17 is 8 with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23578.47058
Deduct 136 from 150 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 140 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 23578.470588
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 23578.470588 with a remainder of 4e-07.
