We look at the division of 12493855 by 298 
We're looking to find how many times 298 goes into 12493855.

Going ahead to step 1:
298 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 298

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 12 by 298, we get 0 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 12, we end up with 12.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 124 / 298

Moving on to step 3:
124 divided by 298 is 0 with a remainder of 124.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 124 after subtracting 0 from 124.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 124, then repeat: 1249 / 298

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 1249 by 298, we get 4 and a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 1192 from 1249, we get 57.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 57, then repeat: 573 / 298

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 573 by 298, we get 1 and a remainder of 275.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 298 from 573, we get 275.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 275 and continue: 2758 / 298

On to step 6:
298 can be fit into 2758 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 419.0
If we take 2682 away from 2758, we end up with 76.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 76, then repeat: 765 / 298

Moving on to step 7:
298 can be fit into 765 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 169.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4192.0
Subtract 596 from 765 to get 169.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 169, then repeat: 1695 / 298

Going ahead to step 8:
1695 divided by 298 is 5 with a remainder of 205.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41925.0
The remainder is 205 after subtracting 1490 from 1695.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 2050 by 298, we get 6 and a remainder of 262.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41925.6
If we take 1788 away from 2050, we end up with 262.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2620, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 2620 by 298, we get 8 and a remainder of 236.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41925.68
If we take 2384 away from 2620, we end up with 236.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
298 can be fit into 2360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 274.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41925.687
The remainder is 274 after subtracting 2086 from 2360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 2740 by 298, we get 9 and a remainder of 58.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41925.6879
Deduct 2682 from 2740 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 580 by 298, we get 1 with a remainder of 282.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 41925.68791
The remainder is 282 after subtracting 298 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2820, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 2820 by 298, we get 9 and a remainder of 138.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41925.687919
Subtracting 2682 from 2820 leaves us with 138.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1380, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
1380 divided by 298 is 4 with a remainder of 188.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41925.6879194
The remainder is 188 after subtracting 1192 from 1380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
298 goes into 1880 6 times with a remainder of 92.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41925.68791946
If we subtract 1788 from 1880, we get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 41925.68791946, with a leftover of 9.2e-08.
