We divide 996399 by 17
Let's see how many times 17 fits into 996399.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 99 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 99 by 17, we get 5 with a remainder of 14.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 85 from 99 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 146 / 17

Advancing to step 3:
17 can be fit into 146 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we take 136 away from 146, we end up with 10.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 103 / 17

Going ahead to step 4:
17 goes into 103 6 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 586.0
Deduct 102 from 103 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 19 / 17

Step 5:
If we divide 19 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5861.0
Subtracting 17 from 19 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 17

Step 6:
If we divide 29 by 17, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58611.0
Deduct 17 from 29 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.

On to 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: 58611.7
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.

Step 8:
The number 17 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 58611.7
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 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 9:
17 goes into 100 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58611.705
Subtract 85 from 100 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
17 goes into 150 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58611.7058
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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58611.70588
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 58611.70588 with a balance of 4e-06.
