Let's divide 512720 by 27
We want to figure out the number of times 512720 can be divided by 27.

Step 1:
The number 27 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 51 / 27

On to step 2:
51 divided by 27 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 27 from 51 leaves us with 24.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 242 / 27

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 242 by 27, we get 8 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 216 from 242 to get 26.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 267 / 27

Moving on to step 4:
27 goes into 267 9 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 189.0
If we take 243 away from 267, we end up with 24.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 242 / 27

Moving on to step 5:
27 can be fit into 242 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1898.0
Subtract 216 from 242 to get 26.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 260 / 27

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 260 by 27, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18989.0
Subtract 243 from 260 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
170 divided by 27 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18989.6
Subtract 162 from 170 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
27 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18989.62
Subtract 54 from 80 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 27 fits into 260 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18989.629
If we subtract 243 from 260, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
27 goes into 170 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18989.6296
If we take 162 away from 170, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
27 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18989.62962
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 54 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
260 divided by 27 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 18989.629629
If we subtract 243 from 260, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 27 fits into 170 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18989.6296296
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 162 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
80 divided by 27 is 2 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18989.62962962
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 54 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The final result is 18989.62962962 with a remainder of 2.6e-08.
