We're dividing 492465 by 26 
We want to divide 492465 by 26.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
49 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 26 away from 49, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 232 / 26

Moving on to step 3:
26 can be fit into 232 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 208 from 232, we get 24.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 244 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 26 fits into 244 9 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 189.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 234 from 244.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 106 / 26

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 26 fits into 106 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1894.0
If we subtract 104 from 106, we get 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 26

Step 6:
26 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18940.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 250 by 26, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18940.9
Subtract 234 from 250 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 160 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18940.96
Subtracting 156 from 160 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
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: 18940.961
Subtracting 26 from 40 leaves us 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 10:
26 goes into 140 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18940.9615
Subtracting 130 from 140 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
26 goes into 100 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18940.96153
Subtract 78 from 100 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 12:
26 goes into 220 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18940.961538
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 208 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
26 can be fit into 120 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18940.9615384
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 160 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18940.96153846
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 18940.96153846 with a balance of 4e-09.
