To divide 66 by 5, we can follow these steps:

1. **How many groups?** 5
2. **Divide the tens:** We have 60 (which is 6 tens). Dividing 60 by 5 gives us 12.
Each of the five groups gets 12.

3. **Regroup the extra tens block into ones:** After taking care of the tens, we are left with 6 (since 66 - 60 = 6), which is the remaining ones.
There are no extra tens remaining to regroup, but we do have these 6 ones.

4. **Disperse these ones pieces evenly:** Distributing the 6 ones among the 5 groups gives us 1 extra one in each of 5 groups, with 1 left over.

5. **Our answer is:** 13 remainder 1 (since 12 from the tens + 1 from the ones = 13, and there is 1 left over).

So, 66 divided by 5 equals **13 remainder 1**.
