18465979 divided by 17 
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 18465979.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 17

On to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 17, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 17 from 18 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
17 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 146 / 17

On to step 4:
17 goes into 146 8 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 108.0
If we subtract 136 from 146, we get 10.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 105 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 105 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1086.0
Subtracting 102 from 105 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 39 / 17

Moving on to step 6:
17 goes into 39 2 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10862.0
Subtract 34 from 39 to get 5.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 57 / 17

Moving on to step 7:
57 divided by 17 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 108623.0
If we take 51 away from 57, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 17

Moving on to step 8:
17 can be fit into 69 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1086234.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 68 from 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 10 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1086234.0
Subtract 0 from 10 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.

On to step 10:
The number 17 fits into 100 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1086234.05
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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 150 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1086234.058
If we take 136 away from 150, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
17 can be fit into 140 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1086234.0588
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 1086234.0588 with a balance of 4e-05.
