Let's divide 974789 by 26
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 974789.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 26, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 26

On to step 2:
The number 26 fits into 97 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 78 away from 97, we end up with 19.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 194 / 26

Advancing to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 194 7 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 182 from 194 leaves us with 12.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 127 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
127 divided by 26 is 4 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 374.0
If we take 104 away from 127, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 238 / 26

Moving on to step 5:
26 goes into 238 9 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3749.0
If we take 234 away from 238, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 26

Going ahead to step 6:
49 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37491.0
Subtract 26 from 49 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 37491.8
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 208 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 220 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37491.88
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 208 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 37491.88, and the remainder is 0.012.
