Let's divide 731583 by 26
We're looking to find how many times 26 goes into 731583.

Moving on to step 1:
7 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 26

Moving on to step 2:
26 can be fit into 73 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 52 away from 73, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 211 / 26

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 211 8 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 208 from 211 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 35 / 26

Going ahead to step 4:
26 goes into 35 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 281.0
If we subtract 26 from 35, we get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 26

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 98 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2813.0
Deduct 78 from 98 and we're left with 20.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 203 / 26

Step 6:
203 divided by 26 is 7 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28137.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 182 from 203.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
26 can be fit into 210 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28137.8
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 208 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
26 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28137.8
Deduct 0 from 20 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.

Advancing to step 9:
200 divided by 26 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28137.807
If we take 182 away from 200, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
26 goes into 180 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28137.8076
Deduct 156 from 180 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 11:
240 divided by 26 is 9 with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28137.80769
Deduct 234 from 240 and we're left 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.

On to step 12:
60 divided by 26 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28137.807692
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 13:
26 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28137.8076923
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
26 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28137.8076923
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.

After the division, we end up with 28137.8076923 and a remainder of 2e-08.
