554491 divided by 27 
We want to figure out the number of times 554491 can be divided by 27.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 27

Advancing to step 2:
27 can be fit into 55 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 54 from 55, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 27

Step 3:
If we divide 14 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 144 / 27

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 144 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 205.0
Deduct 135 from 144 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 27

Going ahead to step 5:
99 divided by 27 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2053.0
If we take 81 away from 99, we end up with 18.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 181 / 27

Advancing to step 6:
27 can be fit into 181 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20536.0
If we take 162 away from 181, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 27, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20536.7
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 189 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
27 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20536.7
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
100 divided by 27 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20536.703
Deduct 81 from 100 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 27 fits into 190 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20536.7037
Deduct 189 from 190 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
27 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20536.7037
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
100 divided by 27 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20536.703703
Deduct 81 from 100 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 190 by 27, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20536.7037037
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 189 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 10 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20536.7037037
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 20536.7037037, and the remainder is 1e-08.
