Let's divide 727899 by 27
We want to divide 727899 by 27.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 27 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 27

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 27, we get 2 with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 54 from 72 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 187 / 27

Step 3:
187 divided by 27 is 6 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we take 162 away from 187, we end up with 25.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 258 / 27

Step 4:
If we divide 258 by 27, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 269.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 243 from 258.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 159 / 27

On to step 5:
27 can be fit into 159 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2695.0
If we take 135 away from 159, we end up with 24.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 249 / 27

On to step 6:
If we divide 249 by 27, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26959.0
Subtract 243 from 249 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
27 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26959.2
Subtract 54 from 60 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
27 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26959.22
Subtracting 54 from 60 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 26959.22 and a remainder of 0.006.
