298601 ÷ 58 
We want to figure out the number of times 298601 can be divided by 58.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 58, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 58

Advancing to step 2:
29 divided by 58 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 298 / 58

Advancing to step 3:
The number 58 fits into 298 5 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 290 from 298 to get 8.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 86 / 58

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 58 fits into 86 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 58 from 86.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 280 / 58

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 280 by 58, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 514.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 232 from 280.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 481 / 58

On to step 6:
58 goes into 481 8 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5148.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 464 from 481.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 58 fits into 170 2 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5148.2
Subtract 116 from 170 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
58 goes into 540 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5148.29
Subtract 522 from 540 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 58 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5148.293
Deduct 174 from 180 and we're left 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 10:
If we divide 60 by 58, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5148.2931
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 58 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 20 by 58, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5148.2931
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 200 by 58, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5148.293103
Subtract 174 from 200 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 13:
58 can be fit into 260 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5148.2931034
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 232 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 58 fits into 280 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5148.29310344
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 232 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5148.29310344 and a remainder of 4.8e-08.
