Let's divide 548540 by 26
We're looking to find how many times 26 goes into 548540.

Step 1:
5 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 26

Step 2:
The number 26 fits into 54 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 52 from 54 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 26

Step 3:
The number 26 fits into 28 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 26 from 28 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 26

Moving on to step 4:
The number 26 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 210.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 254 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
254 divided by 26 is 9 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2109.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 234 from 254.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 200 / 26

Step 6:
26 goes into 200 7 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 21097.0
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.

Step 7:
When dividing 180 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21097.6
Subtract 156 from 180 to 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.

Moving on to step 8:
26 can be fit into 240 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21097.69
If we subtract 234 from 240, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
26 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 21097.692
Subtracting 52 from 60 leaves us with 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 10:
80 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21097.6923
Subtract 78 from 80 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 20 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21097.6923
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 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 12:
26 goes into 200 7 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21097.692307
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 26 fits into 180 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 21097.6923076
Subtract 156 from 180 to 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.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 26 fits into 240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21097.69230769
Subtract 234 from 240 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 21097.69230769 with a balance of 6e-09.
