Answer:

4.25

Explanation:

You would do 17/4

First--- 4 goes into 17 -> 4 times (to make 16)

Second--- There would be 1 and add or pull down a 0 to make ten

Third--- 4 goes into 10 -> 2 times (4.2 rn) (after doing 4x4 into 16 ->17 [the whole number] it is a decimal)

Fourth--- Now it is 4.2 but there's more ----> 10-8=2 so then you add or pull down a 0 to the 2 to make it a 20

Fifth---> then 4 goes into 20 --> 5 times [to be exact] so you would have 20-20 and get 0

TOTAL ANSWER: 4.25
