We divide 978969 by 17
We're looking to find how many times 17 goes into 978969.

Advancing to step 1:
17 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
17 can be fit into 97 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 85 from 97, we get 12.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 128 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 128 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 119 from 128 to get 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 17

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 99 by 17, we get 5 with a remainder of 14.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 575.0
Subtracting 85 from 99 leaves us with 14.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 146 / 17

Step 5:
17 goes into 146 8 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5758.0
If we subtract 136 from 146, we get 10.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 109 / 17

Let's proceed to step 6:
17 can be fit into 109 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 57586.0
Subtracting 102 from 109 leaves us 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 7:
If we divide 70 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57586.4
Subtract 68 from 70 to get 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:
When dividing 20 by 17, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57586.41
Subtract 17 from 20 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
17 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57586.411
Deduct 17 from 30 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 57586.411, and the remainder is 0.0013.
