Let's divide 427461 by 26
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 427461.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 26 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 42 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 26 from 42 and we're left with 16.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 167 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
26 goes into 167 6 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 156 away from 167, we end up with 11.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 114 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
114 divided by 26 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 164.0
Subtract 104 from 114 to get 10.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 106 / 26

Step 5:
The number 26 fits into 106 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1644.0
Deduct 104 from 106 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 21 / 26

Step 6:
21 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16440.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 7:
210 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16440.8
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 208 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
26 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16440.8
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.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 26, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16440.807
Subtracting 182 from 200 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 180 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16440.8076
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16440.80769
Subtracting 234 from 240 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
60 divided by 26 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16440.807692
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.

Moving on to step 13:
26 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16440.8076923
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.

Moving on to step 14:
20 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16440.8076923
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 16440.8076923 with a balance of 2e-08.
