We divide 646588 by 17
Let's see how many times 17 fits into 646588.

Step 1:
The number 17 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 17

Step 2:
17 can be fit into 64 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 51 from 64, we get 13.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 136 / 17

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 136 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 136 from 136.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 5 / 17

On to step 4:
The number 17 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 380.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 17

Step 5:
If we divide 58 by 17, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3803.0
Subtracting 51 from 58 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
17 goes into 78 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38034.0
Subtract 68 from 78 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.

Advancing to step 7:
17 can be fit into 100 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 38034.5
Deduct 85 from 100 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 150 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38034.58
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 140 by 17, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38034.588
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 38034.588 with a balance of 0.0004.
