Let's divide 104985 by 26
Our goal is to divide 104985 by 26.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 26 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 10 / 26

On to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 104 / 26

Going ahead to step 3:
104 divided by 26 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 104 from 104 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 26

Step 4:
The number 26 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 26

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 26 fits into 98 3 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 403.0
Subtract 78 from 98 to get 20.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 205 / 26

On to step 6:
When dividing 205 by 26, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4037.0
Subtract 182 from 205 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
26 goes into 230 8 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4037.8
Deduct 208 from 230 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 26 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4037.88
Subtracting 208 from 220 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4037.88, and the remainder is 0.012.
