Let's divide 864791 by 17
Our goal is to divide 864791 by 17.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 17 fits into 8 0 times, leaving 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.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 86 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
17 goes into 86 5 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 85 from 86.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 17

Advancing to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
Deduct 0 from 14 and we're left with 14.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 147 / 17

Going ahead to step 4:
147 divided by 17 is 8 with a remainder of 11.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 508.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 136 from 147.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 119 / 17

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 119 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5087.0
Deduct 119 from 119 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 1 / 17

Advancing to step 6:
1 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50870.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up 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 7:
17 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50870.0
If we subtract 0 from 10, we 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.

Moving on to step 8:
100 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 50870.05
If we subtract 85 from 100, we 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 150 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50870.058
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.

Step 10:
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: 50870.0588
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 50870.0588 with a balance of 4e-05.
