We're dividing 296870 by 57 
Our goal is to divide 296870 by 57.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 57, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 57

Advancing to step 2:
29 divided by 57 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 296 / 57

Step 3:
When dividing 296 by 57, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 285 from 296 to get 11.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 118 / 57

Going ahead to step 4:
57 goes into 118 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 52.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 114 from 118.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 57

Advancing to step 5:
47 divided by 57 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 520.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 470 / 57

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 470 by 57, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5208.0
Subtract 456 from 470 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 57 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5208.2
Deduct 114 from 140 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
57 goes into 260 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5208.24
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 228 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 320 by 57, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5208.245
Deduct 285 from 320 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 350 by 57, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5208.2456
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 342 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 80 by 57, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5208.24561
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 57 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 57 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5208.245614
Subtracting 228 from 230 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 20 by 57, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5208.245614
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 57 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5208.24561403
Subtracting 171 from 200 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

The final result is 5208.24561403 with a remainder of 2.9e-08.
