Let's divide 638959 by 27
Let's see how many times 27 fits into 638959.

Going ahead to step 1:
6 divided by 27 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 63 / 27

Moving on to step 2:
27 goes into 63 2 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 54 from 63, we get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 27

Advancing to step 3:
27 can be fit into 98 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 81 from 98.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 179 / 27

Advancing to step 4:
179 divided by 27 is 6 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 236.0
Subtracting 162 from 179 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 175 / 27

Going ahead to step 5:
27 goes into 175 6 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2366.0
If we subtract 162 from 175, we get 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 27

Advancing to step 6:
139 divided by 27 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23665.0
If we take 135 away from 139, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
27 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 23665.1
If we subtract 27 from 40, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 130 by 27, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23665.14
Subtract 108 from 130 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
220 divided by 27 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23665.148
Subtract 216 from 220 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 27 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23665.1481
Deduct 27 from 40 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
27 goes into 130 4 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23665.14814
If we take 108 away from 130, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 27 fits into 220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23665.148148
If we take 216 away from 220, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 40 by 27, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 23665.1481481
Subtract 27 from 40 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 27 fits into 130 4 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23665.14814814
If we take 108 away from 130, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Our division results in 23665.14814814 with a remaining 2.2e-08.
