We look at the division of 762986 by 26 
Our goal is to divide 762986 by 26.

Moving on to step 1:
7 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 76 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 76 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 52 from 76.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 242 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 242 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 234 from 242 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 89 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 89 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 293.0
If we take 78 away from 89, we end up with 11.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 118 / 26

Step 5:
When dividing 118 by 26, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2934.0
If we subtract 104 from 118, we get 14.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 146 / 26

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 146 by 26, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29345.0
Subtracting 130 from 146 leaves us 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 7:
The number 26 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29345.6
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 8:
40 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29345.61
Subtract 26 from 40 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
26 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29345.615
Deduct 130 from 140 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 10:
26 can be fit into 100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29345.6153
Deduct 78 from 100 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29345.61538
Deduct 208 from 220 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
120 divided by 26 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29345.615384
Deduct 104 from 120 and we're left 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 13:
If we divide 160 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29345.6153846
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 26 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29345.61538461
Subtract 26 from 40 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Our division results in 29345.61538461 with a remaining 1.4e-08.
