404870 divided by 26 
We want to figure out the number of times 404870 can be divided by 26.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 26 from 40 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 144 / 26

On to step 3:
144 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 130 from 144, we get 14.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 148 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 148 by 26, we get 5 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155.0
If we take 130 away from 148, we end up with 18.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 187 / 26

Moving on to step 5:
187 divided by 26 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1557.0
Deduct 182 from 187 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 50 / 26

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 50 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 15571.0
Subtract 26 from 50 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
26 can be fit into 240 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15571.9
Subtract 234 from 240 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
26 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15571.92
Deduct 52 from 60 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
26 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15571.923
Subtracting 78 from 80 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
26 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15571.923
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 200 by 26, we get 7 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15571.92307
Subtracting 182 from 200 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 180 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 15571.923076
If we take 156 away from 180, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 26 fits into 240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15571.9230769
Subtracting 234 from 240 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 60 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15571.92307692
If we take 52 away from 60, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 15571.92307692 with a balance of 8e-09.
