Let's divide 971584 by 27
We're looking to find how many times 27 goes into 971584.

Step 1:
27 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 27

Going ahead to step 2:
27 goes into 97 3 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 81 from 97 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 161 / 27

Advancing to step 3:
27 can be fit into 161 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35.0
Deduct 135 from 161 and we're left with 26.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 265 / 27

Step 4:
265 divided by 27 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 359.0
If we subtract 243 from 265, we get 22.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 228 / 27

Advancing to step 5:
228 divided by 27 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3598.0
If we take 216 away from 228, we end up with 12.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 124 / 27

Going ahead to step 6:
27 can be fit into 124 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35984.0
If we subtract 108 from 124, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 160 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 35984.5
Subtracting 135 from 160 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
250 divided by 27 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35984.59
Subtracting 243 from 250 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
70 divided by 27 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35984.592
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 54 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 10:
160 divided by 27 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35984.5925
Subtract 135 from 160 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 250 by 27, we get 9 with a remainder of 7.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 35984.59259
If we subtract 243 from 250, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 12:
27 goes into 70 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 35984.592592
If we subtract 54 from 70, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 160 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 35984.5925925
If we subtract 135 from 160, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 250 by 27, we get 9 with a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35984.59259259
If we subtract 243 from 250, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Our division results in 35984.59259259 with a remaining 7e-09.
