We divide 26181414 by 974
We want to figure out the number of times 26181414 can be divided by 974.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 974 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 974

Step 2:
The number 974 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 261 / 974

Let's proceed to step 3:
974 goes into 261 0 times with a remainder of 261.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 261 and we're left with 261.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 261 and repeat the process: 2618 / 974

Moving on to step 4:
The number 974 fits into 2618 2 times, leaving a remainder of 670.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 1948 from 2618, we get 670.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 670 and continue with: 6701 / 974

Advancing to step 5:
974 goes into 6701 6 times with a remainder of 857.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 5844 from 6701 to get 857.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 857 and repeat the process: 8574 / 974

Advancing to step 6:
974 can be fit into 8574 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 782.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 268.0
If we subtract 7792 from 8574, we get 782.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 782 and continue with: 7821 / 974

Step 7:
974 goes into 7821 8 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2688.0
If we subtract 7792 from 7821, we get 29.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 294 / 974

Advancing to step 8:
294 divided by 974 is 0 with a remainder of 294.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26880.0
The remainder is 294 after subtracting 0 from 294.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2940, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
974 goes into 2940 3 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 26880.3
Subtract 2922 from 2940 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
974 goes into 180 0 times with a remainder of 180.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26880.3
Subtracting 0 from 180 leaves us with 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
974 goes into 1800 1 times with a remainder of 826.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26880.301
Deduct 974 from 1800 and we're left with 826.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
974 goes into 8260 8 times with a remainder of 468.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26880.3018
If we subtract 7792 from 8260, we get 468.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 4680 by 974, we get 4 with a remainder of 784.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26880.30184
If we subtract 3896 from 4680, we get 784.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7840, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 7840 by 974, we get 8 and a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26880.301848
If we take 7792 away from 7840, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 480 by 974, we get 0 with a remainder of 480.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 26880.301848
If we take 0 away from 480, we end up with 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
4800 divided by 974 is 4 with a remainder of 904.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26880.30184804
The remainder is 904 after subtracting 3896 from 4800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9040, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 26880.30184804 with a balance of 9.04e-07.
