985953 divided by 17 
We want to divide 985953 by 17.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 17

On to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 17, we get 5 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 85 from 98.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 135 / 17

Step 3:
17 goes into 135 7 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 119 from 135 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 169 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 169 by 17, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 579.0
Subtracting 153 from 169 leaves us with 16.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 165 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 165 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5799.0
Subtracting 153 from 165 leaves us with 12.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 123 / 17

Going ahead to step 6:
17 goes into 123 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57997.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 119 from 123.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 40 by 17, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57997.2
If we take 34 away from 40, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 8:
17 can be fit into 60 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57997.23
Subtracting 51 from 60 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 90 by 17, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57997.235
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 85 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
17 goes into 50 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57997.2352
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 34 from 50.
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 11:
When dividing 160 by 17, we get 9 with a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57997.23529
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 153 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 17 fits into 70 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57997.235294
Subtract 68 from 70 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 20 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 57997.2352941
Deduct 17 from 20 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
30 divided by 17 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57997.23529411
Deduct 17 from 30 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 57997.23529411, and the remainder is 1.3e-08.
