Let's divide 26504257 by 723
Our goal is to divide 26504257 by 723.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 723 is 0 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.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 723

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 723 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 26, we get 26.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 265 / 723

Step 3:
723 can be fit into 265 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 265.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 265, we get 265.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 265 and repeat the process: 2650 / 723

On to step 4:
723 goes into 2650 3 times with a remainder of 481.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 2169 from 2650, we get 481.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 481, then repeat: 4814 / 723

Going ahead to step 5:
4814 divided by 723 is 6 with a remainder of 476.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 4338 away from 4814, we end up with 476.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 476 and continue: 4762 / 723

Advancing to step 6:
723 goes into 4762 6 times with a remainder of 424.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 366.0
The remainder is 424 after subtracting 4338 from 4762.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 424 and continue: 4245 / 723

On to step 7:
The number 723 fits into 4245 5 times, leaving a remainder of 630.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3665.0
If we subtract 3615 from 4245, we get 630.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 630 and repeat the process: 6307 / 723

Advancing to step 8:
723 can be fit into 6307 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 523.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 36658.0
If we take 5784 away from 6307, we end up with 523.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 723 fits into 5230 7 times, leaving a remainder of 169.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36658.7
Subtract 5061 from 5230 to get 169.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1690, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 723 fits into 1690 2 times, leaving a remainder of 244.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 36658.72
The remainder is 244 after subtracting 1446 from 1690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
723 goes into 2440 3 times with a remainder of 271.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36658.723
Subtracting 2169 from 2440 leaves us with 271.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2710, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 2710 by 723, we get 3 and a remainder of 541.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36658.7233
Deduct 2169 from 2710 and we're left with 541.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5410, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 36658.7233 with a balance of 0.00541.
