We're dividing 97724 by 26 
We want to divide 97724 by 26.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 26

Step 2:
When dividing 97 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 78 from 97, we get 19.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 197 / 26

Step 3:
26 goes into 197 7 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtract 182 from 197 to get 15.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 152 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
26 goes into 152 5 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 375.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 130 from 152.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 224 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
26 goes into 224 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3758.0
Subtracting 208 from 224 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 6:
If we divide 160 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3758.6
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
26 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3758.61
If we subtract 26 from 40, we 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 8:
When dividing 140 by 26, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3758.615
Subtracting 130 from 140 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
100 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3758.6153
If we take 78 away from 100, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 26 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3758.61538
Subtract 208 from 220 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
26 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3758.615384
If we take 104 away from 120, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 26 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3758.6153846
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
26 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3758.61538461
Subtracting 26 from 40 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3758.61538461, with a leftover of 1.4e-08.
