Let's divide 509848 by 26
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 509848.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 26 from 50 to get 24.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 249 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
26 can be fit into 249 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Deduct 234 from 249 and we're left with 15.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 158 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 158 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 196.0
If we subtract 156 from 158, we get 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 24 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1960.0
Subtracting 0 from 24 leaves us with 24.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 248 / 26

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 248 by 26, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19609.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 234 from 248.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 140 by 26, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19609.5
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 22.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19609.53
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
26 can be fit into 220 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19609.538
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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 120 by 26, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19609.5384
If we subtract 104 from 120, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
26 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19609.53846
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.

On to step 12:
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: 19609.538461
If we subtract 26 from 40, we 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.

Advancing to step 13:
26 goes into 140 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19609.5384615
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.

On to step 14:
100 divided by 26 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 19609.53846153
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 19609.53846153 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
