We divide 850860 by 17
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 850860.

Advancing to step 1:
17 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 85 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
17 can be fit into 85 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 85 away from 85, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 0 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
0 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
17 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 500.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 86 / 17

On to step 5:
17 can be fit into 86 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5005.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 85 from 86.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 10 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 17 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50050.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
100 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50050.5
If we subtract 85 from 100, we 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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 150 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50050.58
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.

On to step 9:
17 can be fit into 140 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50050.588
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.

Our division results in 50050.588 with a remaining 0.0004.
