We divide 49872987 by 27
We want to figure out the number of times 49872987 can be divided by 27.

Moving on to step 1:
4 divided by 27 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 27

Moving on to step 2:
27 goes into 49 1 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 27 from 49 and we're left with 22.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 228 / 27

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 228 by 27, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 216 from 228 leaves us with 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 27

Going ahead to step 4:
27 can be fit into 127 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 184.0
Subtract 108 from 127 to get 19.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 192 / 27

On to step 5:
27 goes into 192 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1847.0
Subtract 189 from 192 to get 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 27

Advancing to step 6:
27 can be fit into 39 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18471.0
Deduct 27 from 39 and we're left with 12.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 128 / 27

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 27 fits into 128 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 184714.0
Subtract 108 from 128 to get 20.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 207 / 27

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 207 by 27, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1847147.0
Deduct 189 from 207 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
180 divided by 27 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1847147.6
If we take 162 away from 180, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 10:
27 can be fit into 180 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1847147.66
Subtracting 162 from 180 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1847147.66, and the remainder is 0.018.
