Let's divide 302878 by 26
We want to figure out the number of times 302878 can be divided by 26.

Moving on to step 1:
26 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 30 / 26

Step 2:
26 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 26 from 30 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 26

Step 3:
26 can be fit into 42 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 26 from 42 and we're left with 16.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 168 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 168 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 116.0
If we subtract 156 from 168, we get 12.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 127 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 127 by 26, we get 4 with a remainder of 23.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1164.0
Deduct 104 from 127 and we're left with 23.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 238 / 26

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 238 by 26, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11649.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 234 from 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 26 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11649.1
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 8:
When dividing 140 by 26, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11649.15
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.

Step 9:
100 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11649.153
Deduct 78 from 100 and we're left with 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 10:
220 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11649.1538
Deduct 208 from 220 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
120 divided by 26 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11649.15384
Subtracting 104 from 120 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.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11649.153846
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.

Advancing to step 13:
26 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11649.1538461
Deduct 26 from 40 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 26 fits into 140 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11649.15384615
If we take 130 away from 140, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 11649.15384615 and a remainder of 1e-08.
