Let's divide 558494 by 17
Let's see how many times 17 fits into 558494.

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
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
17 can be fit into 55 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 51 from 55, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 48 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtract 34 from 48 to get 14.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 144 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 144 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 328.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 136 from 144.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 17

Moving on to step 5:
17 goes into 89 5 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3285.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 85 from 89.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 17

Step 6:
When dividing 44 by 17, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32852.0
If we subtract 34 from 44, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
17 goes into 100 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32852.5
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 150 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32852.58
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.

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: 32852.588
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.

The final result is 32852.588 with a remainder of 0.0004.
