We divide 687664 by 17
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 687664.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 17 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
17 goes into 68 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 68 from 68.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 17

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 76 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 76 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 404.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 68 from 76.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
17 goes into 86 5 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4045.0
Deduct 85 from 86 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 14 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40450.0
Deduct 0 from 14 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 140 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40450.8
Subtract 136 from 140 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 17, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 40450.82
Deduct 34 from 40 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 17 fits into 60 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40450.823
If we take 51 away from 60, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
90 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40450.8235
Subtracting 85 from 90 leaves us 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 50 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40450.82352
Subtracting 34 from 50 leaves us 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 12:
160 divided by 17 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40450.823529
If we subtract 153 from 160, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 70 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 40450.8235294
If we subtract 68 from 70, we get 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 14:
When dividing 20 by 17, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40450.82352941
Subtract 17 from 20 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 40450.82352941 and a remainder of 3e-09.
