We look at the division of 983581 by 26 
Our goal is to divide 983581 by 26.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 26

On to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 20.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 78 from 98 leaves us with 20.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 203 / 26

On to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 203 7 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtract 182 from 203 to get 21.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 215 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
26 goes into 215 8 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 378.0
Deduct 208 from 215 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 26

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 78 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3783.0
Subtract 78 from 78 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 26

Step 6:
26 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37830.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we 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.

Advancing 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: 37830.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 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:
100 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37830.03
If we subtract 78 from 100, we 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 26 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 37830.038
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.

On to step 10:
The number 26 fits into 120 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37830.0384
Subtract 104 from 120 to 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.

Advancing 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: 37830.03846
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 12:
26 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37830.038461
If we take 26 away from 40, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 13:
26 goes into 140 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37830.0384615
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.

Step 14:
26 goes into 100 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37830.03846153
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.

The final result is 37830.03846153 with a remainder of 2.2e-08.
