We look at the division of 256905 by 26 
We want to divide 256905 by 26.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 256 / 26

Going ahead to step 3:
256 divided by 26 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 234 from 256, we get 22.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 229 / 26

Step 4:
When dividing 229 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 21.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 98.0
Deduct 208 from 229 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 210 / 26

Step 5:
The number 26 fits into 210 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 988.0
Subtracting 208 from 210 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 26

On to step 6:
When dividing 25 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9880.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 250 by 26, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9880.9
If we subtract 234 from 250, 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 26 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9880.96
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.

On to step 9:
26 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9880.961
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.

On to step 10:
26 goes into 140 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9880.9615
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 130 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 100 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9880.96153
Subtract 78 from 100 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 26 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9880.961538
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: 9880.9615384
If we take 104 away from 120, 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.

Moving on to step 14:
26 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9880.96153846
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.

After the division, we end up with 9880.96153846 and a remainder of 4e-09.
