55791 ÷ 27 
Let's see how many times 27 fits into 55791.

On to step 1:
The number 27 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 27

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 27 fits into 55 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 54 from 55.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 27

Step 3:
If we divide 17 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 179 / 27

Going ahead to step 4:
27 can be fit into 179 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 206.0
Subtracting 162 from 179 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 171 / 27

Step 5:
27 goes into 171 6 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2066.0
If we subtract 162 from 171, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 90 by 27, we get 3 with a remainder of 9.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2066.3
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 81 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
27 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2066.33
If we subtract 81 from 90, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2066.33, and the remainder is 0.009.
