We divide 838265 by 17
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 838265.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 83 / 17

Step 2:
When dividing 83 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 15.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 68 from 83 and we're left with 15.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 158 / 17

Step 3:
17 can be fit into 158 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we take 153 away from 158, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 52 by 17, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 493.0
Subtracting 51 from 52 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 16 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4930.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 165 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 165 by 17, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49309.0
Deduct 153 from 165 and we're left with 12.
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 goes into 120 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49309.7
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.

Advancing to step 8:
10 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 49309.7
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
17 can be fit into 100 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49309.705
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 49309.7058
Subtract 136 from 150 to 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.

Moving on to step 11:
140 divided by 17 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49309.70588
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.

Our division results in 49309.70588 with a remaining 4e-06.
