We look at the division of 26285431 by 497 
Let's see how many times 497 fits into 26285431.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 497, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 497

Moving on to step 2:
497 can be fit into 26 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 262 / 497

Advancing to step 3:
The number 497 fits into 262 0 times, leaving a remainder of 262.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 262, we get 262.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 262, then repeat: 2628 / 497

Step 4:
The number 497 fits into 2628 5 times, leaving a remainder of 143.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 2485 from 2628 and we're left with 143.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 143, then repeat: 1435 / 497

Moving on to step 5:
497 goes into 1435 2 times with a remainder of 441.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 52.0
Subtract 994 from 1435 to get 441.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 441, then repeat: 4414 / 497

Moving on to step 6:
497 goes into 4414 8 times with a remainder of 438.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 528.0
If we subtract 3976 from 4414, we get 438.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 438 and continue with: 4383 / 497

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 4383 by 497, we get 8 and a remainder of 407.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5288.0
Deduct 3976 from 4383 and we're left with 407.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 407 and continue: 4071 / 497

On to step 8:
4071 divided by 497 is 8 with a remainder of 95.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52888.0
If we subtract 3976 from 4071, we get 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 950 by 497, we get 1 with a remainder of 453.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52888.1
Deduct 497 from 950 and we're left with 453.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4530, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 497 fits into 4530 9 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52888.19
If we subtract 4473 from 4530, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 497 fits into 570 1 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 52888.191
Subtract 497 from 570 to get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
730 divided by 497 is 1 with a remainder of 233.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 52888.1911
Subtract 497 from 730 to get 233.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2330, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 52888.1911, with a leftover of 0.00233.
