We're dividing 256994 by 27 
We're looking to find how many times 27 goes into 256994.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 27

Step 2:
27 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 256 / 27

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 256 by 27, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 243 from 256.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 139 / 27

Step 4:
27 can be fit into 139 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 95.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 135 from 139.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 27

On to step 5:
49 divided by 27 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 951.0
Subtract 27 from 49 to get 22.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 224 / 27

Step 6:
27 can be fit into 224 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9518.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 216 from 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 27 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9518.2
If we take 54 away from 80, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 260 by 27, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9518.29
Subtract 243 from 260 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 9:
27 can be fit into 170 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9518.296
If we take 162 away from 170, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 80 by 27, we get 2 with a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9518.2962
Subtracting 54 from 80 leaves us 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 11:
When dividing 260 by 27, we get 9 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9518.29629
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 243 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
170 divided by 27 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9518.296296
Subtracting 162 from 170 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
27 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 9518.2962962
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 54 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 260 by 27, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9518.29629629
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 243 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final result is 9518.29629629 with a remainder of 1.7e-08.
