We divide 877918 by 3
We want to divide 877918 by 3.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 3, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 6 from 8, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 3

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 27 from 27.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 7 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 7 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 292.0
Subtracting 6 from 7 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 19 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
3 can be fit into 19 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2926.0
If we subtract 18 from 19, we get 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 11 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29263.0
Deduct 9 from 11 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
3 goes into 28 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 292639.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 27 from 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 292639.3
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.

Advancing to step 8:
10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 292639.33
Deduct 9 from 10 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.

After the division, we end up with 292639.33 and a remainder of 0.001.
