We're dividing 158279 by 27 
Let's see how many times 27 fits into 158279.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 27

Advancing to step 2:
27 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 158 / 27

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 158 by 27, we get 5 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 135 from 158, we get 23.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 232 / 27

On to step 4:
If we divide 232 by 27, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we take 216 away from 232, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 167 / 27

Going ahead to step 5:
27 goes into 167 6 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 586.0
Deduct 162 from 167 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 27

Going ahead to step 6:
59 divided by 27 is 2 with a remainder of 5.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5862.0
If we take 54 away from 59, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 50 by 27, we get 1 and a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5862.1
If we take 27 away from 50, we end up with 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 8:
27 can be fit into 230 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5862.18
If we take 216 away from 230, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 9:
27 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5862.185
Subtracting 135 from 140 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 50 by 27, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5862.1851
If we subtract 27 from 50, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 27 fits into 230 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5862.18518
Deduct 216 from 230 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 140 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5862.185185
Subtract 135 from 140 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 27 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5862.1851851
Subtract 27 from 50 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 230 by 27, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5862.18518518
If we take 216 away from 230, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final result is 5862.18518518 with a remainder of 1.4e-08.
