21697972 ÷ 296 
Our goal is to divide 21697972 by 296.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 296, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 296

Step 2:
296 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 216 / 296

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 216 by 296, we get 0 with a remainder of 216.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 216 and we're left with 216.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 216 and repeat the process: 2169 / 296

On to step 4:
296 goes into 2169 7 times with a remainder of 97.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 2072 from 2169, we get 97.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 97 and repeat the process: 977 / 296

Going ahead to step 5:
296 goes into 977 3 times with a remainder of 89.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73.0
Subtract 888 from 977 to get 89.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 89 and continue: 899 / 296

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 899 by 296, we get 3 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 733.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 888 from 899.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 117 / 296

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 117 by 296, we get 0 with a remainder of 117.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7330.0
Deduct 0 from 117 and we're left with 117.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 117, then carry on: 1172 / 296

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 296 fits into 1172 3 times, leaving a remainder of 284.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73303.0
If we take 888 away from 1172, we end up with 284.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2840, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 2840 by 296, we get 9 and a remainder of 176.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73303.9
If we subtract 2664 from 2840, we get 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 1760 by 296, we get 5 and a remainder of 280.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73303.95
Subtract 1480 from 1760 to get 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
296 goes into 2800 9 times with a remainder of 136.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73303.959
Subtract 2664 from 2800 to get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
296 can be fit into 1360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 176.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73303.9594
Deduct 1184 from 1360 and we're left with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Step 13:
296 can be fit into 1760 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 280.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73303.95945
Subtracting 1480 from 1760 leaves us with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
296 can be fit into 2800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73303.959459
Subtract 2664 from 2800 to get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 296 fits into 1360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 176.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 73303.9594594
If we subtract 1184 from 1360, we get 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
1760 divided by 296 is 5 with a remainder of 280.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73303.95945945
If we take 1480 away from 1760, we end up with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

The final result is 73303.95945945 with a remainder of 2.8e-07.
