We're dividing 26944978 by 278 
We're looking to find how many times 278 goes into 26944978.

Advancing to step 1:
278 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 278

Step 2:
26 divided by 278 is 0 with a remainder of 26.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 269 / 278

Step 3:
When dividing 269 by 278, we get 0 with a remainder of 269.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 269 and we're left with 269.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 269, then repeat: 2694 / 278

Step 4:
278 goes into 2694 9 times with a remainder of 192.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 192 after subtracting 2502 from 2694.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 192, then repeat: 1924 / 278

On to step 5:
The number 278 fits into 1924 6 times, leaving a remainder of 256.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 96.0
The remainder is 256 after subtracting 1668 from 1924.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 256, then repeat: 2569 / 278

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 2569 by 278, we get 9 with a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 969.0
If we subtract 2502 from 2569, we get 67.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 67 and continue: 677 / 278

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 278 fits into 677 2 times, leaving a remainder of 121.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9692.0
Subtracting 556 from 677 leaves us with 121.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 121 and continue with: 1218 / 278

Moving on to step 8:
The number 278 fits into 1218 4 times, leaving a remainder of 106.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 96924.0
If we take 1112 away from 1218, we end up with 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 1060 by 278, we get 3 with a remainder of 226.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 96924.3
Subtracting 834 from 1060 leaves us with 226.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 2260 by 278, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 96924.38
Subtracting 2224 from 2260 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 360 by 278, we get 1 with a remainder of 82.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 96924.381
If we take 278 away from 360, we end up with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
278 goes into 820 2 times with a remainder of 264.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96924.3812
The remainder is 264 after subtracting 556 from 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 2640 by 278, we get 9 and a remainder of 138.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 96924.38129
If we take 2502 away from 2640, we end up with 138.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1380, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
278 goes into 1380 4 times with a remainder of 268.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96924.381294
Subtracting 1112 from 1380 leaves us with 268.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2680, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
278 can be fit into 2680 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 178.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 96924.3812949
Subtract 2502 from 2680 to get 178.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 1780 by 278, we get 6 with a remainder of 112.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 96924.38129496
Subtract 1668 from 1780 to get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

The final result is 96924.38129496 with a remainder of 1.12e-07.
