We divide 994979 by 17
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 994979.

Step 1:
17 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 99 / 17

Step 2:
17 can be fit into 99 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 85 from 99.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 144 / 17

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 144 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we take 136 away from 144, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 89 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
The number 17 fits into 89 5 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 585.0
Deduct 85 from 89 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 17

Moving on to step 5:
17 can be fit into 47 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5852.0
Subtracting 34 from 47 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 139 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 3.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58528.0
If we subtract 136 from 139, we 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.

Advancing to step 7:
30 divided by 17 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58528.1
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
17 goes into 130 7 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58528.17
Deduct 119 from 130 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 9:
17 goes into 110 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58528.176
Subtract 102 from 110 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58528.1764
Deduct 68 from 80 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
120 divided by 17 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58528.17647
Subtracting 119 from 120 leaves us 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 12:
When dividing 10 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 58528.17647
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
17 can be fit into 100 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 58528.1764705
Subtract 85 from 100 to get 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 14:
The number 17 fits into 150 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58528.17647058
Subtract 136 from 150 to 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 58528.17647058 with a balance of 1.4e-08.
