We divide 15981621 by 271
We're looking to find how many times 271 goes into 15981621.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 271, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 271

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 271 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 159 / 271

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 159 by 271, we get 0 and a remainder of 159.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 159 and we're left with 159.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 159 and continue with: 1598 / 271

Moving on to step 4:
271 can be fit into 1598 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 243.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 243 after subtracting 1355 from 1598.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 243 and continue: 2431 / 271

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 2431 by 271, we get 8 and a remainder of 263.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we subtract 2168 from 2431, we get 263.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 263, then repeat: 2636 / 271

Going ahead to step 6:
2636 divided by 271 is 9 with a remainder of 197.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 589.0
If we take 2439 away from 2636, we end up with 197.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 197 and continue with: 1972 / 271

Advancing to step 7:
1972 divided by 271 is 7 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5897.0
Subtract 1897 from 1972 to get 75.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 75, then repeat: 751 / 271

Step 8:
If we divide 751 by 271, we get 2 and a remainder of 209.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58972.0
If we subtract 542 from 751, we get 209.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2090, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 2090 by 271, we get 7 with a remainder of 193.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58972.7
If we take 1897 away from 2090, we end up with 193.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1930, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
271 can be fit into 1930 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58972.77
Subtract 1897 from 1930 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 58972.77 with a balance of 0.033.
