Let's divide 298771 by 61
Let's see how many times 61 fits into 298771.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 61 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 61

Let's proceed to step 2:
61 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 298 / 61

On to step 3:
61 can be fit into 298 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 244 from 298 to get 54.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 547 / 61

On to step 4:
61 goes into 547 8 times with a remainder of 59.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we subtract 488 from 547, we get 59.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 597 / 61

Advancing to step 5:
61 can be fit into 597 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 489.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 549 from 597.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 481 / 61

Going ahead to step 6:
61 can be fit into 481 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4897.0
Deduct 427 from 481 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 540 by 61, we get 8 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4897.8
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 488 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
61 can be fit into 520 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4897.88
Subtract 488 from 520 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4897.88 with a balance of 0.032.
