We divide 388761 by 17
Our goal is to divide 388761 by 17.

Step 1:
The number 17 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 17

On to step 2:
When dividing 38 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 34 from 38 to get 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 17

Step 3:
The number 17 fits into 48 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtracting 34 from 48 leaves us with 14.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 147 / 17

Step 4:
17 can be fit into 147 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 228.0
If we take 136 away from 147, we end up with 11.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 116 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
17 goes into 116 6 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2286.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 102 from 116.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 141 / 17

On to step 6:
If we divide 141 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 5.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22868.0
Deduct 136 from 141 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 17 fits into 50 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22868.2
Deduct 34 from 50 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
17 goes into 160 9 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22868.29
If we take 153 away from 160, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 70 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22868.294
If we take 68 away from 70, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
17 can be fit into 20 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22868.2941
If we take 17 away from 20, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
17 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22868.29411
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 17 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

The final result is 22868.29411 with a remainder of 1.3e-05.
