Let's divide 497841 by 27
Our goal is to divide 497841 by 27.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 27, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 27

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 27 fits into 49 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 27 from 49, we get 22.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 227 / 27

Let's proceed to step 3:
227 divided by 27 is 8 with a remainder of 11.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 216 from 227 to get 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 27

Moving on to step 4:
27 goes into 118 4 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 184.0
Subtracting 108 from 118 leaves us with 10.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 104 / 27

Step 5:
The number 27 fits into 104 3 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1843.0
Deduct 81 from 104 and we're left with 23.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 231 / 27

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 27 fits into 231 8 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18438.0
If we subtract 216 from 231, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 7:
27 goes into 150 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18438.5
Subtract 135 from 150 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
150 divided by 27 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18438.55
Deduct 135 from 150 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 18438.55, and the remainder is 0.015.
