26958975 ÷ 493 
Our goal is to divide 26958975 by 493.

On to step 1:
493 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 493

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 26 by 493, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 26, we get 26.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 269 / 493

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 269 by 493, we get 0 with a remainder of 269.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 269 leaves us with 269.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 269, then repeat: 2695 / 493

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 493 fits into 2695 5 times, leaving a remainder of 230.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 2465 from 2695, we get 230.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 230, then repeat: 2308 / 493

Moving on to step 5:
2308 divided by 493 is 4 with a remainder of 336.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtracting 1972 from 2308 leaves us with 336.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 336, then carry on: 3369 / 493

On to step 6:
3369 divided by 493 is 6 with a remainder of 411.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 546.0
The remainder is 411 after subtracting 2958 from 3369.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 411, then carry on: 4117 / 493

Moving on to step 7:
4117 divided by 493 is 8 with a remainder of 173.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5468.0
If we take 3944 away from 4117, we end up with 173.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 173, then repeat: 1735 / 493

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 1735 by 493, we get 3 with a remainder of 256.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 54683.0
If we take 1479 away from 1735, we end up with 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
493 goes into 2560 5 times with a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 54683.5
Subtracting 2465 from 2560 leaves us with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
493 can be fit into 950 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 457.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54683.51
Deduct 493 from 950 and we're left with 457.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4570, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
4570 divided by 493 is 9 with a remainder of 133.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54683.519
If we subtract 4437 from 4570, we get 133.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 1330 by 493, we get 2 and a remainder of 344.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54683.5192
Subtract 986 from 1330 to get 344.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3440, and continue the process.

Step 13:
493 can be fit into 3440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 482.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54683.51926
If we take 2958 away from 3440, we end up with 482.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4820, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
493 can be fit into 4820 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 383.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 54683.519269
Subtract 4437 from 4820 to get 383.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3830, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
493 goes into 3830 7 times with a remainder of 379.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54683.5192697
Deduct 3451 from 3830 and we're left with 379.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 3790 by 493, we get 7 and a remainder of 339.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 54683.51926977
If we take 3451 away from 3790, we end up with 339.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3390, and continue the process.

The final result is 54683.51926977 with a remainder of 3.39e-07.
