Let's divide 256407 by 26
We're looking to find how many times 26 goes into 256407.

Step 1:
2 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 26

Going ahead to step 2:
26 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 256 / 26

On to step 3:
26 goes into 256 9 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 234 away from 256, we end up with 22.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 224 / 26

Step 4:
The number 26 fits into 224 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 98.0
If we subtract 208 from 224, we get 16.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 160 / 26

Going ahead to step 5:
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: 986.0
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 26

On to step 6:
26 can be fit into 47 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9861.0
If we take 26 away from 47, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
210 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9861.8
Subtracting 208 from 210 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9861.8
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
200 divided by 26 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9861.807
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 180 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9861.8076
Subtract 156 from 180 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9861.80769
Subtract 234 from 240 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 60 by 26, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9861.807692
Subtracting 52 from 60 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 26 fits into 80 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9861.8076923
If we subtract 78 from 80, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
26 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9861.8076923
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9861.8076923 with a remaining 2e-08.
