We divide 499232 by 3
We want to figure out the number of times 499232 can be divided by 3.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 3 from 4, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 3

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 19 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 18 from 19.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 3

Step 3:
If we divide 19 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 166.0
Deduct 18 from 19 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 3

Step 4:
The number 3 fits into 12 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1664.0
Subtract 12 from 12 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 3 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 3 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16641.0
Subtracting 3 from 3 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 2 / 3

Step 6:
The number 3 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 166410.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 20 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166410.6
Subtracting 18 from 20 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 20 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 166410.66
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.

The final outcome is 166410.66, with a leftover of 0.002.
