We're dividing 246257 by 3 
We want to divide 246257 by 3.

Going ahead to step 1:
3 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 3

Step 2:
3 goes into 24 8 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 24 away from 24, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 6 / 3

Moving on to step 3:
3 can be fit into 6 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 82.0
Deduct 6 from 6 and we're left with 0.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
3 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 820.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 3

On to step 5:
3 can be fit into 25 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8208.0
If we take 24 away from 25, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
17 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 82085.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 15 from 17.
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 7:
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: 82085.6
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
3 goes into 20 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 82085.66
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 82085.66 and a remainder of 0.002.
