We're dividing 558612 by 26 
We're looking to find how many times 26 goes into 558612.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 26

Going ahead to step 2:
26 goes into 55 2 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 52 from 55 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 26

On to step 3:
When dividing 38 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 26 from 38 leaves us with 12.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 126 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 126 by 26, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 214.0
If we subtract 104 from 126, we get 22.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 221 / 26

Step 5:
26 can be fit into 221 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2148.0
Deduct 208 from 221 and we're left with 13.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 132 / 26

Advancing to step 6:
26 can be fit into 132 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21485.0
If we take 130 away from 132, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21485.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 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 8:
When dividing 200 by 26, we get 7 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21485.07
Deduct 182 from 200 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 180 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21485.076
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
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 10:
When dividing 240 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 21485.0769
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21485.07692
Deduct 52 from 60 and we're left 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 12:
80 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21485.076923
If we take 78 away from 80, we end up with 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 13:
The number 26 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21485.076923
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
26 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21485.07692307
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.

Our division results in 21485.07692307 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
