We divide 26226824 by 973
We want to divide 26226824 by 973.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 973, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 973

On to step 2:
973 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 0 from 26.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 262 / 973

Moving on to step 3:
973 can be fit into 262 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 262.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 262, we get 262.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 262 and continue: 2622 / 973

On to step 4:
2622 divided by 973 is 2 with a remainder of 676.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 1946 from 2622, we get 676.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 676, then repeat: 6766 / 973

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 6766 by 973, we get 6 and a remainder of 928.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 5838 from 6766 leaves us with 928.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 928 and repeat the process: 9288 / 973

Moving on to step 6:
973 can be fit into 9288 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 531.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 269.0
The remainder is 531 after subtracting 8757 from 9288.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 531 and repeat the process: 5312 / 973

Moving on to step 7:
973 can be fit into 5312 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 447.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2695.0
The remainder is 447 after subtracting 4865 from 5312.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 447 and continue: 4474 / 973

On to step 8:
The number 973 fits into 4474 4 times, leaving a remainder of 582.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 26954.0
Subtract 3892 from 4474 to get 582.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5820, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 5820 by 973, we get 5 and a remainder of 955.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26954.5
The remainder is 955 after subtracting 4865 from 5820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9550, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
973 goes into 9550 9 times with a remainder of 793.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26954.59
The remainder is 793 after subtracting 8757 from 9550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7930, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
7930 divided by 973 is 8 with a remainder of 146.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 26954.598
Deduct 7784 from 7930 and we're left with 146.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 973 fits into 1460 1 times, leaving a remainder of 487.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26954.5981
If we subtract 973 from 1460, we get 487.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4870, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 973 fits into 4870 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26954.59815
Subtracting 4865 from 4870 leaves us with 5.
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 14:
973 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26954.59815
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 973 fits into 500 0 times, leaving a remainder of 500.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26954.59815
If we take 0 away from 500, we end up with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 26954.59815, with a leftover of 5e-06.
