We're dividing 388571 by 26 
We want to figure out the number of times 388571 can be divided by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 26 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 38 / 26

On to step 2:
26 goes into 38 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 26 from 38 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 26

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 128 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 104 from 128 leaves us with 24.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 245 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
26 goes into 245 9 times with a remainder of 11.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 149.0
Subtracting 234 from 245 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 117 / 26

Moving on to step 5:
The number 26 fits into 117 4 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1494.0
If we take 104 away from 117, we end up with 13.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 131 / 26

On to step 6:
131 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14945.0
Subtract 130 from 131 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 26 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14945.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 100 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14945.03
Subtract 78 from 100 to get 22.
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 9:
If we divide 220 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14945.038
Subtract 208 from 220 to 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 10:
26 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14945.0384
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 104 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14945.03846
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
26 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14945.038461
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.

Step 13:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14945.0384615
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 130 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14945.03846153
If we subtract 78 from 100, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 14945.03846153 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
