We're dividing 493467 by 26 
We want to figure out the number of times 493467 can be divided by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 49 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 26 from 49 to get 23.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 233 / 26

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 233 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 25.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 208 from 233 leaves us with 25.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 254 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
26 goes into 254 9 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 189.0
Subtracting 234 from 254 leaves us with 20.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 206 / 26

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 206 by 26, we get 7 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1897.0
If we take 182 away from 206, we end up with 24.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 247 / 26

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 247 by 26, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18979.0
If we subtract 234 from 247, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 130 by 26, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18979.5
If we take 130 away from 130, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 26 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18979.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
26 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 18979.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 18979.5 with a remainder of 0.0.
