We're dividing 868208 by 17 
We want to divide 868208 by 17.

Going ahead to step 1:
17 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 86 / 17

Step 2:
17 can be fit into 86 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 85 from 86 to get 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 17

Advancing to step 3:
17 goes into 18 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we take 17 away from 18, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 12 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 510.0
If we take 0 away from 12, we end up with 12.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 120 / 17

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 120 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5107.0
If we subtract 119 from 120, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 17

Going ahead to step 6:
18 divided by 17 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 51071.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 17 from 18.
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 7:
If we divide 10 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51071.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up 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 8:
100 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51071.05
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.

Moving on to step 9:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51071.058
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 17 fits into 140 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 51071.0588
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 51071.0588 with a balance of 4e-05.
