We're dividing 279811 by 26 
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 279811.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 26 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 27 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 26 from 27.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 19 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 19 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 0 from 19.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 198 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 26 fits into 198 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107.0
Subtract 182 from 198 to get 16.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 161 / 26

Step 5:
The number 26 fits into 161 6 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1076.0
Subtracting 156 from 161 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 51 / 26

Step 6:
26 can be fit into 51 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10761.0
Deduct 26 from 51 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10761.9
If we take 234 away from 250, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
26 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10761.96
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.

Moving on to step 9:
26 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10761.961
Subtracting 26 from 40 leaves us 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 10:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10761.9615
Subtracting 130 from 140 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
26 goes into 100 3 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10761.96153
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
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 12:
When dividing 220 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10761.961538
If we take 208 away from 220, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 120 by 26, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10761.9615384
If we subtract 104 from 120, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 160 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10761.96153846
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 10761.96153846, with a leftover of 4e-09.
