78542696 ÷ 26 
We want to figure out the number of times 78542696 can be divided by 26.

Let's proceed to step 1:
26 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 26

Step 2:
When dividing 78 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 78 from 78 to get 0.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 5 / 26

Moving on to step 3:
26 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 54 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
54 divided by 26 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 302.0
Deduct 52 from 54 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
26 can be fit into 22 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3020.0
If we take 0 away from 22, we end up with 22.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 226 / 26

Going ahead to step 6:
226 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 30208.0
If we take 208 away from 226, we end up with 18.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 189 / 26

Moving on to step 7:
26 can be fit into 189 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 302087.0
Deduct 182 from 189 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 76 / 26

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 76 by 26, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3020872.0
If we subtract 52 from 76, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
26 goes into 240 9 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3020872.9
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up with 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 10:
When dividing 60 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3020872.92
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.

Step 11:
80 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3020872.923
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 78 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 26 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3020872.923
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 26 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3020872.92307
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 182 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
26 can be fit into 180 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3020872.923076
If we subtract 156 from 180, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
26 goes into 240 9 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3020872.9230769
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.

Going ahead to step 16:
60 divided by 26 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3020872.92307692
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3020872.92307692 with a balance of 8e-09.
