We look at the division of 731542 by 26 
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 731542.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 73 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 73 2 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 52 from 73.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 211 / 26

On to step 3:
26 goes into 211 8 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
Deduct 208 from 211 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 35 / 26

On to step 4:
The number 26 fits into 35 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 281.0
If we subtract 26 from 35, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 94 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
The number 26 fits into 94 3 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2813.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 78 from 94.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 162 / 26

Moving on to step 6:
26 can be fit into 162 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28136.0
Subtract 156 from 162 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 7:
If we divide 60 by 26, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28136.2
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.

Moving on to step 8:
80 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28136.23
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 78 from 80.
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 9:
20 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28136.23
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 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 10:
The number 26 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28136.2307
Subtracting 182 from 200 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 11:
26 can be fit into 180 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28136.23076
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
26 can be fit into 240 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28136.230769
Deduct 234 from 240 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 60 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28136.2307692
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
26 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28136.23076923
Deduct 78 from 80 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 28136.23076923 with a balance of 2e-09.
