We're dividing 165585 by 27 
Our goal is to divide 165585 by 27.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 27

Going ahead to step 2:
27 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 16, we get 16.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 165 / 27

Advancing to step 3:
165 divided by 27 is 6 with a remainder of 3.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 162 from 165, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 35 / 27

Moving on to step 4:
35 divided by 27 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61.0
Subtracting 27 from 35 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 27

On to step 5:
27 can be fit into 88 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 613.0
Subtracting 81 from 88 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 75 / 27

Advancing to step 6:
27 can be fit into 75 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6132.0
If we subtract 54 from 75, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
27 goes into 210 7 times with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6132.7
If we take 189 away from 210, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 210 by 27, we get 7 and a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6132.77
Subtracting 189 from 210 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6132.77 with a remaining 0.021.
