We look at the division of 419731 by 26 
We're looking to find how many times 26 goes into 419731.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 41 / 26

Step 2:
When dividing 41 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 26 from 41 to get 15.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 159 / 26

On to step 3:
26 goes into 159 6 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 156 from 159, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 37 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 161.0
Deduct 26 from 37 and we're left with 11.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 113 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
26 goes into 113 4 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1614.0
If we take 104 away from 113, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 91 / 26

Step 6:
26 goes into 91 3 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16143.0
If we take 78 away from 91, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
26 can be fit into 130 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 16143.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 130 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 26 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16143.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16143.5
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.

Our division results in 16143.5 with a remaining 0.0.
