298997 ÷ 25 
We want to divide 298997 by 25.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 25, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 25

Going ahead to step 2:
25 goes into 29 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 25 away from 29, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 25

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 48 by 25, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 25 from 48.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 239 / 25

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 239 by 25, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 119.0
Subtract 225 from 239 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 149 / 25

Step 5:
25 can be fit into 149 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1195.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 125 from 149.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 247 / 25

Step 6:
The number 25 fits into 247 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11959.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 225 from 247.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
220 divided by 25 is 8 with a remainder of 20.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11959.8
If we take 200 away from 220, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 25 fits into 200 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11959.88
Subtract 200 from 200 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 11959.88, with a leftover of 0.0.
