We divide 298543 by 51
We're looking to find how many times 51 goes into 298543.

On to step 1:
51 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 51

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 29 to get 29.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 298 / 51

Advancing to step 3:
51 goes into 298 5 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 255 from 298 to get 43.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 435 / 51

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 435 by 51, we get 8 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 408 from 435 leaves us with 27.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 274 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
51 goes into 274 5 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 585.0
If we subtract 255 from 274, we get 19.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 193 / 51

Moving on to step 6:
51 goes into 193 3 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5853.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 153 from 193.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 400 by 51, we get 7 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5853.7
Subtracting 357 from 400 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 430 by 51, we get 8 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5853.78
Subtracting 408 from 430 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 51 fits into 220 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5853.784
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 204 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 51, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5853.7843
Subtracting 153 from 160 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 51 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5853.78431
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 51 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
51 can be fit into 190 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5853.784313
Subtract 153 from 190 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
51 can be fit into 370 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5853.7843137
If we subtract 357 from 370, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 130 by 51, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5853.78431372
If we take 102 away from 130, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5853.78431372 with a remaining 2.8e-08.
