Let's divide 496643 by 26
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 496643.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 26 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 26

Step 2:
When dividing 49 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 26 away from 49, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 236 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
26 can be fit into 236 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtract 234 from 236 to get 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 26

Step 4:
If we divide 26 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 191.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 26 from 26.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 26

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 4 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1910.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 43 / 26

Moving on to step 6:
26 goes into 43 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19101.0
Subtracting 26 from 43 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 170 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19101.6
If we take 156 away from 170, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
26 goes into 140 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 19101.65
If we take 130 away from 140, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 26 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19101.653
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 26 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19101.6538
If we subtract 208 from 220, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
26 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19101.65384
If we subtract 104 from 120, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
160 divided by 26 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 19101.653846
Subtracting 156 from 160 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 26 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19101.6538461
Subtract 26 from 40 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
26 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 19101.65384615
If we subtract 130 from 140, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Our division results in 19101.65384615 with a remaining 1e-08.
