We're dividing 798969 by 17 
We want to divide 798969 by 17.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 79 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
17 can be fit into 79 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 68 from 79.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 17

Advancing to step 3:
17 goes into 118 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 102 from 118, we get 16.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 169 / 17

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 169 by 17, we get 9 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 469.0
If we subtract 153 from 169, we get 16.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 166 / 17

Moving on to step 5:
17 can be fit into 166 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4699.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 153 from 166.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 139 / 17

On to step 6:
The number 17 fits into 139 8 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46998.0
Subtracting 136 from 139 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
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: 46998.1
Subtracting 17 from 30 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
17 goes into 130 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46998.17
If we subtract 119 from 130, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 110 by 17, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46998.176
Subtract 102 from 110 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 17 fits into 80 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46998.1764
If we take 68 away from 80, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 120 by 17, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46998.17647
Deduct 119 from 120 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
10 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46998.17647
If we subtract 0 from 10, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
100 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46998.1764705
Deduct 85 from 100 and we're left 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 14:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46998.17647058
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.

After the division, we end up with 46998.17647058 and a remainder of 1.4e-08.
