417971 divided by 26 
We want to divide 417971 by 26.

Step 1:
4 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 41 / 26

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 41 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 26 from 41 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 157 / 26

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 157 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 156 from 157.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
26 goes into 19 0 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 160.0
If we take 0 away from 19, we end up with 19.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 197 / 26

Step 5:
If we divide 197 by 26, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1607.0
If we subtract 182 from 197, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 151 / 26

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 151 by 26, we get 5 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16075.0
If we subtract 130 from 151, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
210 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16075.8
If we take 208 away from 210, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
20 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16075.8
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 26 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16075.807
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 182 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
26 goes into 180 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16075.8076
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.

Moving on to step 11:
26 goes into 240 9 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16075.80769
If we subtract 234 from 240, we 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 26 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16075.807692
Deduct 52 from 60 and we're left 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 13:
26 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16075.8076923
Subtracting 78 from 80 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 14:
20 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16075.8076923
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 16075.8076923 and a remainder of 2e-08.
