Let's divide 26362973 by 542
We want to divide 26362973 by 542.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 542 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 542

Moving on to step 2:
26 divided by 542 is 0 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 263 / 542

Going ahead to step 3:
542 can be fit into 263 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 263.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 263 after subtracting 0 from 263.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 263 and continue with: 2636 / 542

On to step 4:
542 goes into 2636 4 times with a remainder of 468.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 2168 from 2636, we get 468.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 468, then carry on: 4682 / 542

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 4682 by 542, we get 8 and a remainder of 346.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 4336 away from 4682, we end up with 346.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 346, then carry on: 3469 / 542

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 542 fits into 3469 6 times, leaving a remainder of 217.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 486.0
If we subtract 3252 from 3469, we get 217.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 217 and repeat the process: 2177 / 542

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 2177 by 542, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4864.0
Subtract 2168 from 2177 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 93 / 542

Going ahead to step 8:
542 goes into 93 0 times with a remainder of 93.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48640.0
Subtracting 0 from 93 leaves us with 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Step 9:
542 can be fit into 930 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 388.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48640.1
If we subtract 542 from 930, we get 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 3880 by 542, we get 7 with a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 48640.17
If we subtract 3794 from 3880, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 860 by 542, we get 1 and a remainder of 318.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48640.171
Subtract 542 from 860 to get 318.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 542 fits into 3180 5 times, leaving a remainder of 470.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48640.1715
If we subtract 2710 from 3180, we get 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
542 goes into 4700 8 times with a remainder of 364.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48640.17158
Subtract 4336 from 4700 to get 364.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3640, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 3640 by 542, we get 6 with a remainder of 388.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48640.171586
Deduct 3252 from 3640 and we're left with 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 3880 by 542, we get 7 with a remainder of 86.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48640.1715867
The remainder is 86 after subtracting 3794 from 3880.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Step 16:
860 divided by 542 is 1 with a remainder of 318.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48640.17158671
Subtracting 542 from 860 leaves us with 318.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3180, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 48640.17158671, with a leftover of 3.18e-07.
