We divide 728996 by 26
We want to divide 728996 by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 26

Step 2:
The number 26 fits into 72 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 52 from 72 leaves us with 20.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 208 / 26

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 208 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 208 from 208, we get 0.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 9 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
26 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 280.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 99 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2803.0
Subtract 78 from 99 to get 21.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 216 / 26

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 216 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28038.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 208 from 216.
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 7:
When dividing 80 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28038.3
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 78 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28038.3
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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 9:
200 divided by 26 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28038.307
Subtract 182 from 200 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
26 goes into 180 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28038.3076
If we subtract 156 from 180, 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
26 goes into 240 9 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 28038.30769
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up 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 12:
If we divide 60 by 26, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28038.307692
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.

Step 13:
26 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28038.3076923
If we take 78 away from 80, we end up 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 20 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28038.3076923
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.

Our division results in 28038.3076923 with a remaining 2e-08.
