We divide 36488 by 26
Our goal is to divide 36488 by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
26 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 36 / 26

Step 2:
26 can be fit into 36 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 26 from 36 leaves us with 10.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 104 / 26

Step 3:
When dividing 104 by 26, we get 4 with a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 104 from 104 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 26

Step 4:
The number 26 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 140.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
88 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 10.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1403.0
If we subtract 78 from 88, 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.

Advancing to step 6:
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: 1403.3
If we take 78 away from 100, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
220 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1403.38
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 26, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1403.384
Subtracting 104 from 120 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
26 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1403.3846
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
26 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1403.38461
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.

On to step 11:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1403.384615
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.

On to step 12:
The number 26 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1403.3846153
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.

Step 13:
26 can be fit into 220 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1403.38461538
Deduct 208 from 220 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 1403.38461538 and a remainder of 1.2e-08.
