160538 ÷ 3 
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 160538.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 3

Going ahead to step 2:
16 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 15 from 16 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 10 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 10 by 3, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 9 from 10.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 15 by 3, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 535.0
If we take 15 away from 15, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 3 / 3

On to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 3 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5351.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 3 from 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 3

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 8 by 3, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 53512.0
Subtracting 6 from 8 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
3 can be fit into 20 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53512.6
If we subtract 18 from 20, we 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.

Advancing to step 8:
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: 53512.66
Deduct 18 from 20 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.

The quotient of the division is 53512.66, and the remainder is 0.002.
