We divide 527844 by 17
Let's see how many times 17 fits into 527844.

On to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 52 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 52 by 17, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 51 from 52 to get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 17 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtract 17 from 17 to get 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 17

On to step 4:
17 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 310.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 84 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
17 can be fit into 84 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3104.0
Deduct 68 from 84 and we're left with 16.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 164 / 17

Moving on to step 6:
17 can be fit into 164 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31049.0
If we subtract 153 from 164, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 110 by 17, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 31049.6
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.

On to step 8:
17 can be fit into 80 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31049.64
Subtracting 68 from 80 leaves us with 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 9:
120 divided by 17 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31049.647
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 119 from 120.
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 10:
10 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31049.647
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.

Step 11:
17 goes into 100 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 31049.64705
Subtracting 85 from 100 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31049.647058
If we subtract 136 from 150, we get 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 13:
The number 17 fits into 140 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31049.6470588
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 136 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 31049.6470588 with a balance of 4e-08.
