We're dividing 1707211 by 401 
Our goal is to divide 1707211 by 401.

Step 1:
401 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 401

Let's proceed to step 2:
401 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 170 / 401

Going ahead to step 3:
401 can be fit into 170 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 170.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 170 to get 170.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 170, then repeat: 1707 / 401

Step 4:
When dividing 1707 by 401, we get 4 with a remainder of 103.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 1604 from 1707 and we're left with 103.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 103 and continue with: 1032 / 401

Step 5:
When dividing 1032 by 401, we get 2 with a remainder of 230.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 802 from 1032 leaves us with 230.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 230 and continue: 2301 / 401

Going ahead to step 6:
401 goes into 2301 5 times with a remainder of 296.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 425.0
The remainder is 296 after subtracting 2005 from 2301.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 296 and continue with: 2961 / 401

Going ahead to step 7:
2961 divided by 401 is 7 with a remainder of 154.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4257.0
If we subtract 2807 from 2961, we get 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 1540 by 401, we get 3 and a remainder of 337.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4257.3
Subtract 1203 from 1540 to get 337.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 3370 by 401, we get 8 and a remainder of 162.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4257.38
If we take 3208 away from 3370, we end up with 162.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
401 goes into 1620 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4257.384
Subtracting 1604 from 1620 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.

Moving on to step 11:
160 divided by 401 is 0 with a remainder of 160.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4257.384
Subtracting 0 from 160 leaves us with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 1600 by 401, we get 3 and a remainder of 397.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4257.38403
The remainder is 397 after subtracting 1203 from 1600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3970, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 401 fits into 3970 9 times, leaving a remainder of 361.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4257.384039
Subtract 3609 from 3970 to get 361.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
401 goes into 3610 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4257.3840399
If we subtract 3609 from 3610, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4257.3840399, with a leftover of 1e-08.
