We look at the division of 874994 by 17 
Let's see how many times 17 fits into 874994.

Going ahead to step 1:
8 divided by 17 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 17

Moving on to step 2:
87 divided by 17 is 5 with a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 85 away from 87, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 17

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 24 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 17 from 24.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 79 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 11.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 514.0
If we subtract 68 from 79, we get 11.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 119 / 17

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 119 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 0.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5147.0
Subtract 119 from 119 to get 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
17 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 51470.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
17 can be fit into 40 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51470.2
If we take 34 away from 40, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 60 by 17, we get 3 and a remainder of 9.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51470.23
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 51 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 17 fits into 90 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51470.235
If we subtract 85 from 90, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 10:
17 goes into 50 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51470.2352
Subtract 34 from 50 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 17, we get 9 and a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51470.23529
Deduct 153 from 160 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
17 goes into 70 4 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51470.235294
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 13:
17 can be fit into 20 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51470.2352941
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 17 from 20.
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 14:
17 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51470.23529411
Subtracting 17 from 30 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 51470.23529411 and a remainder of 1.3e-08.
