We're dividing 745854 by 17 
We want to figure out the number of times 745854 can be divided by 17.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 68 from 74 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 65 / 17

Step 3:
17 can be fit into 65 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 43.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 51 from 65.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 148 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
17 can be fit into 148 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 438.0
If we subtract 136 from 148, we get 12.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 125 / 17

Moving on to step 5:
17 can be fit into 125 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4387.0
Subtracting 119 from 125 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 64 / 17

Step 6:
17 can be fit into 64 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43873.0
Subtracting 51 from 64 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:
17 can be fit into 130 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43873.7
Subtracting 119 from 130 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
17 can be fit into 110 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43873.76
Deduct 102 from 110 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 80 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43873.764
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 68 from 80.
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 10:
17 goes into 120 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43873.7647
If we take 119 away from 120, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
10 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43873.7647
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.

Let's proceed 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: 43873.764705
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 13:
17 goes into 150 8 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 43873.7647058
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 14:
When dividing 140 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43873.76470588
If we take 136 away from 140, we end up 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 outcome is 43873.76470588, with a leftover of 4e-09.
