842581 ÷ 17 
Let's see how many times 17 fits into 842581.

Advancing to step 1:
17 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 84 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 17 fits into 84 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 68 from 84.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 162 / 17

Moving on to step 3:
17 can be fit into 162 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtract 153 from 162 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 95 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
The number 17 fits into 95 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 495.0
If we subtract 85 from 95, we get 10.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 108 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 108 by 17, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4956.0
If we subtract 102 from 108, we get 6.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 61 / 17

On to step 6:
61 divided by 17 is 3 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49563.0
Subtract 51 from 61 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 100 by 17, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 49563.5
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 8:
When dividing 150 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 49563.58
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 136 from 150.
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.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49563.588
Subtract 136 from 140 to get 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 outcome is 49563.588, with a leftover of 0.0004.
