I struggled to show the work formatted how I would normally write this problem out, so I'll also talk through how I got the answer.
The first step in long division by hand is to take the number that is furthest to the left and seeing how many times your divisor (26) will go into it.
In this case the digit in the thoudands place (our furthest left) is 8. Obivously 26 does not fit into 8. So our answer will have a 0 in the thousands place and we move one place to the right.
We now have 86. 26 fits into 86 three times and leaves a difference of 8 remaining in the hundreds place, and we move the right again to the tens place.
We again have 86. 26 again fits in three time and leaves a difference of 8. As we move to the right to the ones place we are left with 84.
26 fits into 84 three times, but we have a difference of 6 this time.
We cannot continue as 26 will never fit into our remainder of 6.
We had a 0 in the thousands place, a 3 in the hundreds place, a 3 in the tens place and a 3 in the ones palce with 6 left over.
So the final answer is 333 remainder 6
