We divide 841997 by 17
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 841997.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 84 / 17

Moving on to step 2:
17 goes into 84 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 68 from 84 leaves us with 16.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 161 / 17

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 161 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Deduct 153 from 161 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 17

Let's proceed to step 4:
17 goes into 89 5 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 495.0
If we take 85 away from 89, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 17

Moving on to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 49 2 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4952.0
If we take 34 away from 49, we end up with 15.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 157 / 17

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 17 fits into 157 9 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49529.0
Deduct 153 from 157 and we're left with 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:
If we divide 40 by 17, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49529.2
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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 60 by 17, we get 3 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 49529.23
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:
17 can be fit into 90 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 49529.235
If we take 85 away from 90, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 17 fits into 50 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49529.2352
Subtracting 34 from 50 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
160 divided by 17 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49529.23529
If we take 153 away from 160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
17 goes into 70 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49529.235294
If we take 68 away from 70, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
17 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49529.2352941
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
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: 49529.23529411
If we subtract 17 from 30, we get 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 49529.23529411, and the remainder is 1.3e-08.
