We're dividing 691799 by 17 
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 691799.

Step 1:
17 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 17

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 69 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 68 from 69, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
11 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 11.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40.0
If we subtract 0 from 11, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 117 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
17 goes into 117 6 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 406.0
Subtracting 102 from 117 leaves us with 15.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 159 / 17

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 159 by 17, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4069.0
If we subtract 153 from 159, we get 6.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 69 / 17

Going ahead to step 6:
69 divided by 17 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40694.0
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.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40694.0
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:
The number 17 fits into 100 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40694.05
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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 17 fits into 150 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40694.058
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.

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: 40694.0588
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 40694.0588 with a balance of 4e-05.
