Let's divide 590034 by 17
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 590034.

Step 1:
17 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 59 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 59 by 17, we get 3 with a remainder of 8.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 51 from 59 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 80 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
80 divided by 17 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we subtract 68 from 80, we get 12.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 120 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 120 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 347.0
Subtracting 119 from 120 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 13 / 17

Going ahead to step 5:
13 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3470.0
Subtracting 0 from 13 leaves us with 13.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 134 / 17

Step 6:
If we divide 134 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 34707.0
Subtract 119 from 134 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 7:
17 goes into 150 8 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 34707.8
If we subtract 136 from 150, we 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.

Moving on to step 8:
17 can be fit into 140 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34707.88
If we subtract 136 from 140, we 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.

After the division, we end up with 34707.88 and a remainder of 0.004.
