26483842 ÷ 987 
We want to figure out the number of times 26483842 can be divided by 987.

Going ahead to step 1:
987 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 987

Moving on to step 2:
26 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 264 / 987

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 264 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 264.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 264 after subtracting 0 from 264.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 264 and repeat the process: 2648 / 987

Advancing to step 4:
2648 divided by 987 is 2 with a remainder of 674.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 1974 away from 2648, we end up with 674.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 674 and continue with: 6743 / 987

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 6743 by 987, we get 6 with a remainder of 821.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 821 after subtracting 5922 from 6743.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 821 and continue: 8218 / 987

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 8218 by 987, we get 8 and a remainder of 322.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 268.0
If we take 7896 away from 8218, we end up with 322.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 322, then repeat: 3224 / 987

Step 7:
When dividing 3224 by 987, we get 3 with a remainder of 263.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2683.0
Subtract 2961 from 3224 to get 263.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 263, then repeat: 2632 / 987

On to step 8:
The number 987 fits into 2632 2 times, leaving a remainder of 658.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26832.0
If we subtract 1974 from 2632, we get 658.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6580, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 6580 by 987, we get 6 and a remainder of 658.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26832.6
The remainder is 658 after subtracting 5922 from 6580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
6580 divided by 987 is 6 with a remainder of 658.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26832.66
The remainder is 658 after subtracting 5922 from 6580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6580, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 26832.66 with a balance of 0.658.
