We're dividing 298437 by 55 
We want to figure out the number of times 298437 can be divided by 55.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 55, we get 0 with 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 / 55

Step 2:
When dividing 29 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 298 / 55

Step 3:
55 can be fit into 298 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 275 from 298.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 234 / 55

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 234 by 55, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
Deduct 220 from 234 and we're left with 14.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 143 / 55

On to step 5:
The number 55 fits into 143 2 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 542.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 110 from 143.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 337 / 55

Step 6:
55 can be fit into 337 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5426.0
Deduct 330 from 337 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
70 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5426.1
If we subtract 55 from 70, 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 150 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5426.12
If we subtract 110 from 150, we 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.

Step 9:
400 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5426.127
Subtract 385 from 400 to 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
150 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5426.1272
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
55 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5426.12727
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 12:
The number 55 fits into 150 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5426.127272
If we subtract 110 from 150, we 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.

Advancing to step 13:
400 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5426.1272727
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 14:
The number 55 fits into 150 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5426.12727272
If we subtract 110 from 150, we 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.

The quotient of the division is 5426.12727272, and the remainder is 4e-08.
