We divide 782731 by 3
Let's see how many times 3 fits into 782731.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 can be fit into 7 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 6 from 7 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 3

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Deduct 18 from 18 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 2 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
3 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 260.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 27 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2609.0
If we subtract 27 from 27, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 3 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
3 divided by 3 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26091.0
Deduct 3 from 3 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
3 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 260910.0
Deduct 0 from 1 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.

Moving on to step 7:
10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 260910.3
Subtracting 9 from 10 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 10 by 3, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 260910.33
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.

The quotient of the division is 260910.33, and the remainder is 0.001.
