We're dividing 188557 by 26 
We want to divide 188557 by 26.

Step 1:
26 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we get 18.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 188 / 26

Let's proceed to step 3:
26 can be fit into 188 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 182 away from 188, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 65 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
26 goes into 65 2 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 72.0
If we take 52 away from 65, we end up with 13.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 135 / 26

On to step 5:
26 goes into 135 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 725.0
Subtracting 130 from 135 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 57 / 26

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 57 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7252.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 52 from 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7252.1
Deduct 26 from 50 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 240 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7252.19
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up 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 9:
The number 26 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7252.192
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7252.1923
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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 20 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7252.1923
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 26 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7252.192307
If we subtract 182 from 200, we 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 180 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7252.1923076
Subtracting 156 from 180 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 240 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 7252.19230769
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 7252.19230769, with a leftover of 6e-09.
