Let's divide 461654 by 3
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 461654.

Advancing to step 1:
3 can be fit into 4 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 3 from 4 to get 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 3, we get 5 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 15 from 16 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 11 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 153.0
If we take 9 away from 11, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
3 can be fit into 26 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1538.0
Subtracting 24 from 26 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 3

Step 5:
When dividing 25 by 3, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15388.0
Subtracting 24 from 25 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 3

Step 6:
The number 3 fits into 14 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 153884.0
Deduct 12 from 14 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 7:
20 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 153884.6
If we take 18 away from 20, we end up 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:
The number 3 fits into 20 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 153884.66
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 153884.66, and the remainder is 0.002.
