We're dividing 138801 by 17 
We want to figure out the number of times 138801 can be divided by 17.

On to step 1:
17 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 13 / 17

On to step 2:
13 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 13.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 13 and we're left with 13.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 138 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 138 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 136 from 138 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 28 by 17, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 81.0
Subtracting 17 from 28 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 110 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
110 divided by 17 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 816.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 102 from 110.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
17 can be fit into 81 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8164.0
Subtract 68 from 81 to get 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 7:
17 can be fit into 130 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8164.7
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 17 fits into 110 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8164.76
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 102 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 80 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8164.764
Subtract 68 from 80 to get 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 10:
17 can be fit into 120 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8164.7647
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
17 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8164.7647
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
When dividing 100 by 17, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8164.764705
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.

Advancing to step 13:
150 divided by 17 is 8 with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8164.7647058
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
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: 8164.76470588
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.

The final outcome is 8164.76470588, with a leftover of 4e-09.
