We're dividing 298775 by 83 
We want to figure out the number of times 298775 can be divided by 83.

Step 1:
83 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 83

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 83, we get 0 and a remainder of 29.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 29 to get 29.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 298 / 83

Step 3:
83 goes into 298 3 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 249 from 298.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 497 / 83

On to step 4:
When dividing 497 by 83, we get 5 with a remainder of 82.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35.0
The remainder is 82 after subtracting 415 from 497.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 82 and continue with: 827 / 83

On to step 5:
The number 83 fits into 827 9 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 359.0
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 747 from 827.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 80, then repeat: 805 / 83

On to step 6:
805 divided by 83 is 9 with a remainder of 58.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3599.0
If we take 747 away from 805, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
580 divided by 83 is 6 with a remainder of 82.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3599.6
Deduct 498 from 580 and we're left with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
83 can be fit into 820 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3599.69
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 747 from 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 9:
730 divided by 83 is 8 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3599.698
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 664 from 730.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 660 by 83, we get 7 with a remainder of 79.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3599.6987
Subtract 581 from 660 to get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
83 goes into 790 9 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3599.69879
Subtract 747 from 790 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
430 divided by 83 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3599.698795
If we subtract 415 from 430, we get 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 13:
83 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 67.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3599.6987951
If we take 83 away from 150, we end up with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 670 by 83, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3599.69879518
If we subtract 664 from 670, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3599.69879518 with a remaining 6e-09.
