Let's divide 487353 by 26
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 487353.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
26 goes into 48 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 26 from 48 and we're left with 22.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 227 / 26

On to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 227 8 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 208 from 227 and we're left with 19.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 193 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
26 goes into 193 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187.0
Subtracting 182 from 193 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 115 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
26 can be fit into 115 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1874.0
If we take 104 away from 115, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 113 / 26

Moving on to step 6:
26 goes into 113 4 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 18744.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 104 from 113.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 7:
26 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18744.3
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 78 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 120 by 26, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18744.34
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 26 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18744.346
Subtracting 156 from 160 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 10:
40 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18744.3461
If we take 26 away from 40, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 140 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18744.34615
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 130 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
26 can be fit into 100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18744.346153
If we subtract 78 from 100, we get 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 13:
220 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18744.3461538
If we subtract 208 from 220, we 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.

Step 14:
26 can be fit into 120 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18744.34615384
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.

The final result is 18744.34615384 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
