542128 ÷ 26 
We want to divide 542128 by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
26 can be fit into 54 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 52 from 54 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 22 / 26

Step 3:
If we divide 22 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 22, we end up with 22.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 221 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 221 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 208.0
Subtract 208 from 221 to get 13.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 132 / 26

On to step 5:
The number 26 fits into 132 5 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2085.0
Deduct 130 from 132 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 26

Moving on to step 6:
28 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20851.0
Subtracting 26 from 28 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
20 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20851.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 26 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 20851.07
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.

On to step 9:
26 goes into 180 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20851.076
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 10:
26 goes into 240 9 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20851.0769
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20851.07692
Subtract 52 from 60 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
26 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 20851.076923
Subtracting 78 from 80 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 26 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20851.076923
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
26 goes into 200 7 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20851.07692307
Deduct 182 from 200 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 20851.07692307 and a remainder of 1.8e-08.
