We look at the division of 540798 by 26 
Our goal is to divide 540798 by 26.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 26 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 54 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 52 from 54, we get 2.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 20 / 26

On to step 3:
20 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 207 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
207 divided by 26 is 7 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 207.0
If we take 182 away from 207, we end up with 25.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 259 / 26

Going ahead to step 5:
259 divided by 26 is 9 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2079.0
If we take 234 away from 259, we end up with 25.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 258 / 26

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 258 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 24.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20799.0
If we subtract 234 from 258, we 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 240 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20799.9
Deduct 234 from 240 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
26 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20799.92
Subtracting 52 from 60 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 9:
26 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20799.923
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:
When dividing 20 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20799.923
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 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:
If we divide 200 by 26, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20799.92307
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 182 from 200.
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:
26 can be fit into 180 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20799.923076
Deduct 156 from 180 and we're left 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:
26 can be fit into 240 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20799.9230769
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.

Moving on to step 14:
26 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20799.92307692
Subtract 52 from 60 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 20799.92307692, with a leftover of 8e-09.
