120974 divided by 27 
We want to divide 120974 by 27.

Moving on to step 1:
27 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 27

Advancing to step 2:
12 divided by 27 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 120 / 27

Let's proceed to step 3:
120 divided by 27 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 108 from 120 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 129 / 27

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 129 by 27, we get 4 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we take 108 away from 129, we end up with 21.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 217 / 27

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 217 by 27, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 448.0
Subtract 216 from 217 to get 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 27

Moving on to step 6:
14 divided by 27 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4480.0
Subtract 0 from 14 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
27 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4480.5
Deduct 135 from 140 and we're left 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 8:
If we divide 50 by 27, we get 1 and a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4480.51
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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 230 by 27, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4480.518
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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 140 by 27, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4480.5185
Deduct 135 from 140 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 11:
27 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4480.51851
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 27 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 230 by 27, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4480.518518
Subtract 216 from 230 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 140 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4480.5185185
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 135 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 50 by 27, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4480.51851851
Deduct 27 from 50 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 4480.51851851 with a remaining 2.3e-08.
