Let's divide 212298 by 5
Let's see how many times 5 fits into 212298.

On to step 1:
5 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 5

On to step 2:
When dividing 21 by 5, we get 4 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 20 from 21 to get 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 5

Going ahead to step 3:
5 goes into 12 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we subtract 10 from 12, we get 2.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 5

Step 4:
22 divided by 5 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 424.0
If we take 20 away from 22, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 5

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 29 by 5, we get 5 and a remainder of 4.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4245.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 25 from 29.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 5

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 5 fits into 48 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42459.0
Subtracting 45 from 48 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
30 divided by 5 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 42459.6
Deduct 30 from 30 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42459.6
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 0 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42459.6
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 42459.6 with a balance of 0.0.
