We're dividing 589945 by 26 
Our goal is to divide 589945 by 26.

Advancing to step 1:
26 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
26 can be fit into 58 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 52 from 58, we get 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 26

Step 3:
The number 26 fits into 69 2 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 52 from 69.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 179 / 26

On to step 4:
If we divide 179 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 23.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 226.0
Subtracting 156 from 179 leaves us with 23.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 234 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
26 goes into 234 9 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2269.0
Deduct 234 from 234 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 26

Let's proceed to step 6:
5 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22690.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 50 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22690.1
Subtracting 26 from 50 leaves us with 24.
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 8:
26 can be fit into 240 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22690.19
Subtracting 234 from 240 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
The number 26 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22690.192
If we take 52 away from 60, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22690.1923
Subtract 78 from 80 to get 2.
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 11:
26 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22690.1923
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.

Step 12:
26 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22690.192307
Deduct 182 from 200 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 13:
26 can be fit into 180 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22690.1923076
Subtract 156 from 180 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 26 fits into 240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22690.19230769
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.

After the division, we end up with 22690.19230769 and a remainder of 6e-09.
