Let's divide 125717 by 27
We want to divide 125717 by 27.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 27 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 27

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 12 by 27, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 125 / 27

Advancing to step 3:
125 divided by 27 is 4 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 108 away from 125, we end up with 17.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 177 / 27

Advancing to step 4:
27 can be fit into 177 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46.0
Deduct 162 from 177 and we're left with 15.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 151 / 27

Let's proceed to step 5:
151 divided by 27 is 5 with a remainder of 16.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 465.0
Deduct 135 from 151 and we're left with 16.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 167 / 27

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 167 by 27, we get 6 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4656.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 162 from 167.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 50 by 27, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4656.1
Deduct 27 from 50 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
27 can be fit into 230 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4656.18
Subtracting 216 from 230 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
27 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4656.185
If we take 135 away from 140, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
27 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4656.1851
Subtract 27 from 50 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
27 can be fit into 230 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4656.18518
If we subtract 216 from 230, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 140 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4656.185185
Subtracting 135 from 140 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.

On to step 13:
50 divided by 27 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4656.1851851
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 27 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 27 fits into 230 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4656.18518518
Subtract 216 from 230 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4656.18518518, with a leftover of 1.4e-08.
