Let's divide 72431752 by 26
Our goal is to divide 72431752 by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
26 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 52 from 72.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 204 / 26

Step 3:
26 goes into 204 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we take 182 away from 204, we end up with 22.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 223 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 223 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 278.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 208 from 223.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 151 / 26

Step 5:
The number 26 fits into 151 5 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2785.0
Deduct 130 from 151 and we're left with 21.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 217 / 26

On to step 6:
The number 26 fits into 217 8 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 27858.0
If we subtract 208 from 217, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 95 / 26

Advancing to step 7:
26 goes into 95 3 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 278583.0
Subtracting 78 from 95 leaves us with 17.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 172 / 26

Moving on to step 8:
26 goes into 172 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2785836.0
Subtracting 156 from 172 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 160 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2785836.6
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 10:
If we divide 40 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2785836.61
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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 140 by 26, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2785836.615
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 26 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2785836.6153
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.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 220 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2785836.61538
If we subtract 208 from 220, we get 12.
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 14:
The number 26 fits into 120 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2785836.615384
Deduct 104 from 120 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
26 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2785836.6153846
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 156 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
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: 2785836.61538461
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.

The final result is 2785836.61538461 with a remainder of 1.4e-08.
