Let's divide 955701 by 17
We want to divide 955701 by 17.

Let's proceed to step 1:
17 goes into 9 0 times with 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.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 95 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 17 fits into 95 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 85 from 95, we get 10.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 105 / 17

Step 3:
When dividing 105 by 17, we get 6 with a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56.0
If we take 102 away from 105, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 17

Going ahead to step 4:
37 divided by 17 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 562.0
Subtract 34 from 37 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 30 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 30 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5621.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 17 from 30.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 131 / 17

Step 6:
If we divide 131 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 56217.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 119 from 131.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 7:
17 can be fit into 120 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56217.7
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 119 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 17 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56217.7
Subtract 0 from 10 to 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.

Step 9:
The number 17 fits into 100 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56217.705
Subtracting 85 from 100 leaves us with 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 10:
17 goes into 150 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 56217.7058
Subtracting 136 from 150 leaves us with 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 11:
17 can be fit into 140 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56217.70588
Deduct 136 from 140 and we're left with 4.
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 56217.70588 with a remainder of 4e-06.
