We divide 498296 by 27
We want to divide 498296 by 27.

Advancing to step 1:
27 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 27

Let's proceed to step 2:
49 divided by 27 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 27 away from 49, we end up with 22.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 228 / 27

Let's proceed to step 3:
27 can be fit into 228 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 216 from 228 and we're left with 12.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 122 / 27

Moving on to step 4:
27 goes into 122 4 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 184.0
Deduct 108 from 122 and we're left with 14.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 149 / 27

Advancing to step 5:
The number 27 fits into 149 5 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1845.0
If we take 135 away from 149, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 146 / 27

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 146 by 27, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18455.0
If we subtract 135 from 146, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
27 can be fit into 110 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18455.4
Deduct 108 from 110 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
27 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18455.4
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 9:
27 goes into 200 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18455.407
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 189 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 27 fits into 110 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18455.4074
Subtracting 108 from 110 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
27 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18455.4074
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 200 by 27, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18455.407407
If we subtract 189 from 200, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 27 fits into 110 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18455.4074074
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 108 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 20 by 27, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18455.4074074
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 18455.4074074 with a balance of 2e-08.
