Let's divide 178713 by 26
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 178713.

On to step 1:
26 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
26 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 178 / 26

Going ahead to step 3:
178 divided by 26 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 156 from 178 to get 22.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 227 / 26

Step 4:
If we divide 227 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 19.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68.0
Subtract 208 from 227 to get 19.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 191 / 26

Moving on to step 5:
26 can be fit into 191 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 687.0
If we subtract 182 from 191, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 93 / 26

On to step 6:
When dividing 93 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6873.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 78 from 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 7:
150 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6873.5
Deduct 130 from 150 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.

Moving on to step 8:
26 goes into 200 7 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6873.57
If we subtract 182 from 200, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
180 divided by 26 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6873.576
Subtracting 156 from 180 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.

Moving on to step 10:
26 goes into 240 9 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6873.5769
Subtract 234 from 240 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6873.57692
Subtract 52 from 60 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 80 by 26, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6873.576923
If we take 78 away from 80, 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.

Moving on to step 13:
26 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6873.576923
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
26 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6873.57692307
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.

Our division results in 6873.57692307 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
