Let's divide 27017 by 51
We want to figure out the number of times 27017 can be divided by 51.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 51

Moving on to step 2:
The number 51 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 27, we get 27.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 270 / 51

Going ahead to step 3:
51 goes into 270 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 255 from 270.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 151 / 51

Going ahead to step 4:
151 divided by 51 is 2 with a remainder of 49.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52.0
Subtracting 102 from 151 leaves us with 49.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 497 / 51

On to step 5:
51 can be fit into 497 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 529.0
Subtract 459 from 497 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 380 by 51, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 529.7
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 357 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
51 goes into 230 4 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 529.74
Deduct 204 from 230 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 51 fits into 260 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 529.745
Subtracting 255 from 260 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 529.745
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 500 by 51, we get 9 and a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 529.74509
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 459 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
410 divided by 51 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 529.745098
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 408 from 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 529.745098
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
200 divided by 51 is 3 with a remainder of 47.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 529.74509803
If we take 153 away from 200, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Our division results in 529.74509803 with a remaining 4.7e-08.
