We divide 612715 by 3
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 612715.

On to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 3, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 6 away from 6, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 1 / 3

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 1 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 3

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 12 by 3, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 204.0
Subtracting 12 from 12 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 7 / 3

Moving on to step 4:
7 divided by 3 is 2 with a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2042.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 6 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 11 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20423.0
If we subtract 9 from 11, we get 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
25 divided by 3 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 204238.0
Deduct 24 from 25 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 10 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 204238.3
Subtract 9 from 10 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 204238.33
If we subtract 9 from 10, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Our division results in 204238.33 with a remaining 0.001.
