30899973 ÷ 26 
Our goal is to divide 30899973 by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
26 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 30 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 30 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 26 away from 30, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 48 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 26 away from 48, we end up with 22.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 229 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
26 goes into 229 8 times with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtract 208 from 229 to get 21.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 219 / 26

On to step 5:
26 goes into 219 8 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1188.0
Deduct 208 from 219 and we're left with 11.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 119 / 26

Step 6:
If we divide 119 by 26, we get 4 and a remainder of 15.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11884.0
If we take 104 away from 119, we end up with 15.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 157 / 26

Going ahead to step 7:
26 goes into 157 6 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 118846.0
Subtract 156 from 157 to get 1.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 13 / 26

Moving on to step 8:
26 can be fit into 13 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1188460.0
Subtract 0 from 13 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 130 by 26, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1188460.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 130 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
26 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1188460.5
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
0 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1188460.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1188460.5 with a balance of 0.0.
