Let's divide 296989 by 10
We're looking to find how many times 10 goes into 296989.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 10 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
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 / 10

On to step 2:
When dividing 29 by 10, we get 2 with a remainder of 9.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 20 from 29 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 96 / 10

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 96 by 10, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 90 from 96 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 10

Moving on to step 4:
10 can be fit into 69 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 296.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 60 from 69.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 10

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 10 fits into 98 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2969.0
Deduct 90 from 98 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 89 / 10

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 89 by 10, we get 8 and a remainder of 9.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29698.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 80 from 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
90 divided by 10 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29698.9
Deduct 90 from 90 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 10 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29698.9
Deduct 0 from 0 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 9:
0 divided by 10 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29698.9
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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 29698.9 with a balance of 0.0.
