578705 divided by 26 
We want to divide 578705 by 26.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 57 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 57 2 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 52 from 57 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 26

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 58 by 26, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtracting 52 from 58 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 67 / 26

On to step 4:
26 can be fit into 67 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 222.0
If we subtract 52 from 67, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 150 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 150 by 26, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2225.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 130 from 150.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 205 / 26

Going ahead to step 6:
205 divided by 26 is 7 with a remainder of 23.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22257.0
If we take 182 away from 205, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
26 goes into 230 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22257.8
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 208 from 230.
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 8:
When dividing 220 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22257.88
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 22257.88 with a balance of 0.012.
