We divide 499471 by 26
We want to divide 499471 by 26.

Moving 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
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
26 goes into 49 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 26 from 49 leaves us with 23.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 26

Step 3:
26 goes into 239 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we take 234 away from 239, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 26

On to step 4:
If we divide 54 by 26, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 192.0
Deduct 52 from 54 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 26

Step 5:
When dividing 27 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1921.0
Deduct 26 from 27 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 26

On to step 6:
11 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 11.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19210.0
Deduct 0 from 11 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 26, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19210.4
Subtract 104 from 110 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 60 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19210.42
If we take 52 away from 60, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
80 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19210.423
If we subtract 78 from 80, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 20 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19210.423
If we subtract 0 from 20, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
26 goes into 200 7 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19210.42307
Subtracting 182 from 200 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 12:
26 goes into 180 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19210.423076
If we take 156 away from 180, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 240 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19210.4230769
Subtract 234 from 240 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 26 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19210.42307692
Subtract 52 from 60 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 19210.42307692, with a leftover of 8e-09.
