We divide 298445 by 55
We're looking to find how many times 55 goes into 298445.

Let's proceed to step 1:
55 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 55

Step 2:
The number 55 fits into 29 0 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 298 / 55

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 298 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 23.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 275 from 298.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 234 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
234 divided by 55 is 4 with a remainder of 14.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 220 from 234.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 144 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 144 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 542.0
Subtract 110 from 144 to get 34.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 345 / 55

On to step 6:
55 can be fit into 345 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5426.0
Deduct 330 from 345 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5426.2
Subtract 110 from 150 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 400 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5426.27
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
150 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5426.272
Deduct 110 from 150 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5426.2727
Subtracting 385 from 400 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 150 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5426.27272
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 110 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5426.272727
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 150 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5426.2727272
Subtract 110 from 150 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
55 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5426.27272727
Subtracting 385 from 400 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5426.27272727 with a remaining 1.5e-08.
