Let's divide 298853 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 298853 can be divided by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
74 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 29 0 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 74

On to step 3:
If we divide 298 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 296 from 298 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 285 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 285 3 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 403.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 222 from 285.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 633 / 74

Step 6:
74 goes into 633 8 times with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4038.0
Deduct 592 from 633 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 410 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4038.5
Subtracting 370 from 410 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
400 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4038.55
Subtract 370 from 400 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4038.55, with a leftover of 0.03.
