Let's divide 407117 by 26
We want to divide 407117 by 26.

Step 1:
26 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
40 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 26 from 40 and we're left with 14.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 147 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 147 by 26, we get 5 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 130 from 147 to get 17.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 171 / 26

Let's proceed to step 4:
171 divided by 26 is 6 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 156.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 156 from 171.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 151 / 26

Let's proceed to step 5:
26 can be fit into 151 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1565.0
Subtract 130 from 151 to get 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 26

Step 6:
If we divide 217 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 9.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15658.0
If we take 208 away from 217, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
26 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15658.3
If we take 78 away from 90, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
26 can be fit into 120 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15658.34
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.

Moving on to step 9:
160 divided by 26 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 15658.346
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 26 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15658.3461
If we take 26 away from 40, we end up with 14.
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 11:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15658.34615
Deduct 130 from 140 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
26 goes into 100 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15658.346153
Subtracting 78 from 100 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 220 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15658.3461538
Deduct 208 from 220 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 26 fits into 120 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15658.34615384
Subtracting 104 from 120 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 15658.34615384 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
