We look at the division of 83423541 by 298 
Let's see how many times 298 fits into 83423541.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 298, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 83 / 298

Moving on to step 2:
298 can be fit into 83 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 83, we end up with 83.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 83, then repeat: 834 / 298

Step 3:
834 divided by 298 is 2 with a remainder of 238.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 596 from 834 leaves us with 238.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 238, then repeat: 2382 / 298

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 298 fits into 2382 7 times, leaving a remainder of 296.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
The remainder is 296 after subtracting 2086 from 2382.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 296 and repeat the process: 2963 / 298

Advancing to step 5:
298 goes into 2963 9 times with a remainder of 281.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 279.0
If we take 2682 away from 2963, we end up with 281.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 281, then carry on: 2815 / 298

Step 6:
When dividing 2815 by 298, we get 9 with a remainder of 133.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2799.0
Subtract 2682 from 2815 to get 133.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 133, then carry on: 1334 / 298

Let's proceed to step 7:
298 goes into 1334 4 times with a remainder of 142.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27994.0
If we subtract 1192 from 1334, we get 142.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 142, then repeat: 1421 / 298

Going ahead to step 8:
298 goes into 1421 4 times with a remainder of 229.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 279944.0
Subtracting 1192 from 1421 leaves us with 229.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2290, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
298 goes into 2290 7 times with a remainder of 204.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279944.7
If we subtract 2086 from 2290, we get 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
298 can be fit into 2040 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 252.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279944.76
Subtract 1788 from 2040 to get 252.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
298 can be fit into 2520 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 279944.768
Subtracting 2384 from 2520 leaves us with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 298 fits into 1360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 168.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279944.7684
Subtracting 1192 from 1360 leaves us with 168.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
298 goes into 1680 5 times with a remainder of 190.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279944.76845
Deduct 1490 from 1680 and we're left with 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 298 fits into 1900 6 times, leaving a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 279944.768456
If we subtract 1788 from 1900, we get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
298 can be fit into 1120 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 226.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 279944.7684563
If we take 894 away from 1120, we end up with 226.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 2260 by 298, we get 7 and a remainder of 174.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279944.76845637
Subtract 2086 from 2260 to get 174.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1740, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 279944.76845637 with a balance of 1.74e-07.
