579749 divided by 26 
We want to figure out the number of times 579749 can be divided by 26.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
26 goes into 57 2 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 52 away from 57, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 26

Moving on to step 3:
59 divided by 26 is 2 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 52 from 59.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 77 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 77 by 26, we get 2 and a remainder of 25.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 222.0
Deduct 52 from 77 and we're left with 25.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 254 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 254 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 20.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2229.0
If we subtract 234 from 254, we get 20.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 209 / 26

Step 6:
The number 26 fits into 209 8 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22298.0
Subtract 208 from 209 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
26 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22298.0
If we subtract 0 from 10, 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 8:
26 can be fit into 100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 22298.03
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
220 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 22298.038
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 208 from 220.
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 10:
If we divide 120 by 26, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22298.0384
If we subtract 104 from 120, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
26 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22298.03846
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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 22298.038461
If we subtract 26 from 40, we 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.

Moving on to step 13:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22298.0384615
Subtract 130 from 140 to 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 14:
26 goes into 100 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22298.03846153
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final result is 22298.03846153 with a remainder of 2.2e-08.
