We look at the division of 998716 by 26 
Our goal is to divide 998716 by 26.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 26 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 99 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 99 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 78 from 99 and we're left with 21.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 218 / 26

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 218 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 208 from 218, we get 10.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 107 / 26

Step 4:
The number 26 fits into 107 4 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 384.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 104 from 107.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 26

On to step 5:
26 goes into 31 1 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3841.0
Deduct 26 from 31 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 56 / 26

Going ahead to step 6:
26 can be fit into 56 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38412.0
Subtract 52 from 56 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.

On to step 7:
26 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 38412.1
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 26 from 40.
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 8:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38412.15
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:
26 can be fit into 100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38412.153
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.

On to step 10:
The number 26 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38412.1538
Subtracting 208 from 220 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
120 divided by 26 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38412.15384
If we take 104 away from 120, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
26 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38412.153846
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 26, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38412.1538461
Subtract 26 from 40 to get 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 14:
26 goes into 140 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 38412.15384615
Subtract 130 from 140 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 38412.15384615, and the remainder is 1e-08.
