Let's divide 469955 by 17
We want to divide 469955 by 17.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 17 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 46 / 17

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 46 by 17, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 34 from 46 and we're left with 12.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 129 / 17

On to step 3:
129 divided by 17 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27.0
Deduct 119 from 129 and we're left with 10.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 109 / 17

Step 4:
17 goes into 109 6 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 276.0
Subtracting 102 from 109 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 75 / 17

Step 5:
17 can be fit into 75 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2764.0
If we subtract 68 from 75, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 75 / 17

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 75 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 7.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27644.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 68 from 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 70 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27644.4
Subtracting 68 from 70 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
20 divided by 17 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 27644.41
Subtracting 17 from 20 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 17 fits into 30 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27644.411
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 17 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 27644.411 with a balance of 0.0013.
