279741 divided by 54 
We want to divide 279741 by 54.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 54

Step 2:
If we divide 27 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 279 / 54

On to step 3:
54 can be fit into 279 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 270 away from 279, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 54

Moving on to step 4:
97 divided by 54 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we subtract 54 from 97, we get 43.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 434 / 54

Let's proceed to step 5:
434 divided by 54 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 518.0
Deduct 432 from 434 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 54

Going ahead to step 6:
21 divided by 54 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5180.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 210 by 54, we get 3 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5180.3
If we subtract 162 from 210, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 480 by 54, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5180.38
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 480 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5180.388
Subtract 432 from 480 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5180.388 and a remainder of 0.0048.
