Let's divide 844842 by 27
We want to figure out the number of times 844842 can be divided by 27.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 27 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 84 / 27

On to step 2:
The number 27 fits into 84 3 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 81 from 84, we get 3.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 34 / 27

Moving on to step 3:
The number 27 fits into 34 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 27 from 34.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 27

Step 4:
The number 27 fits into 78 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 312.0
If we subtract 54 from 78, we get 24.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 244 / 27

Advancing to step 5:
244 divided by 27 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3129.0
If we take 243 away from 244, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 27

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 12 by 27, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 31290.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 120 by 27, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31290.4
If we subtract 108 from 120, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 27, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31290.44
Deduct 108 from 120 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 31290.44, and the remainder is 0.012.
