We look at the division of 724173 by 26 
We're looking to find how many times 26 goes into 724173.

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

Advancing to step 2:
72 divided by 26 is 2 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 52 from 72 leaves us with 20.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 204 / 26

Step 3:
The number 26 fits into 204 7 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 182 from 204 leaves us with 22.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 221 / 26

On to step 4:
221 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 13.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 278.0
If we take 208 away from 221, we end up with 13.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 137 / 26

On to step 5:
26 can be fit into 137 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2785.0
Subtract 130 from 137 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 73 / 26

Let's proceed to step 6:
26 goes into 73 2 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27852.0
Deduct 52 from 73 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
210 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27852.8
Deduct 208 from 210 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 26 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27852.8
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.

Step 9:
26 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27852.807
If we subtract 182 from 200, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
26 can be fit into 180 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 27852.8076
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:
If we divide 240 by 26, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 27852.80769
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 12:
When dividing 60 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27852.807692
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 13:
If we divide 80 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27852.8076923
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
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: 27852.8076923
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

The final result is 27852.8076923 with a remainder of 2e-08.
