We divide 535946 by 27
We want to divide 535946 by 27.

On to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 27, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 27

Step 2:
53 divided by 27 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 27 from 53, we get 26.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 265 / 27

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 265 by 27, we get 9 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 243 from 265, we get 22.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 229 / 27

On to step 4:
If we divide 229 by 27, we get 8 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 198.0
If we take 216 away from 229, we end up with 13.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 134 / 27

Moving on to step 5:
27 goes into 134 4 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1984.0
If we take 108 away from 134, we end up with 26.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 266 / 27

Step 6:
When dividing 266 by 27, we get 9 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19849.0
Subtract 243 from 266 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 7:
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: 19849.8
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 216 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 140 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19849.85
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 9:
50 divided by 27 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19849.851
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 10:
27 goes into 230 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19849.8518
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 216 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
27 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19849.85185
If we take 135 away from 140, we end up 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.

Step 12:
27 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19849.851851
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 230 by 27, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19849.8518518
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 14:
If we divide 140 by 27, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19849.85185185
Subtracting 135 from 140 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 19849.85185185, and the remainder is 5e-09.
