We look at the division of 217017 by 9 
Our goal is to divide 217017 by 9.

On to step 1:
9 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 9

Moving on to step 2:
9 goes into 21 2 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 18 from 21.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 9

On to step 3:
The number 9 fits into 37 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 36 from 37 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 10 / 9

On to step 4:
10 divided by 9 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 241.0
Subtract 9 from 10 to get 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 9

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 11 by 9, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2411.0
If we take 9 away from 11, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 9

Moving on to step 6:
27 divided by 9 is 3 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 24113.0
Subtracting 27 from 27 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
9 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24113.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 9 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24113.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 24113.0 with a balance of 0.0.
