<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 1417, we can group it as 17 and 14.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find n whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 14. We can say n is 3 because 3 x 3 = 9, which is less than 14. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 3, and after subtracting 9 from 14, the<a>remainder</a>is 5.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 17, making the new<a>dividend</a>517. Add the old<a>divisor</a>(3) with itself to get 6, which will be part of our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 17, making the new<a>dividend</a>517. Add the old<a>divisor</a>(3) with itself to get 6, which will be part of our new divisor.</p>
5
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be 6n, where n is a digit such that 6n x n is less than or equal to 517. Let us try n = 8, then 68 x 8 = 544, which is too large. Try n = 7, then 67 x 7 = 469, which is less than 517.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be 6n, where n is a digit such that 6n x n is less than or equal to 517. Let us try n = 8, then 68 x 8 = 544, which is too large. Try n = 7, then 67 x 7 = 469, which is less than 517.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 469 from 517, and the remainder is 48. The quotient is now 37.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 469 from 517, and the remainder is 48. The quotient is now 37.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the remainder is not zero, add a<a>decimal</a>point to the quotient, and bring down two zeros to make the new dividend 4800.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the remainder is not zero, add a<a>decimal</a>point to the quotient, and bring down two zeros to make the new dividend 4800.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>The new divisor is 674 (67 doubled plus 4), and we find a new digit n such that 674n x n is less than or equal to 4800. Let n be 7, then 6747 x 7 = 4729.</p>

<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 4729 from 4800, the remainder is 71, and the quotient is 37.7.</p>
