Let's divide 599483 by 3
We want to figure out the number of times 599483 can be divided by 3.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 3 fits into 5 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 3 from 5 to get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 3

Step 2:
3 can be fit into 29 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtract 27 from 29 to get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 3

Advancing to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 29 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 199.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 27 from 29.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 3

Moving on to step 4:
3 can be fit into 24 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1998.0
If we take 24 away from 24, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 3

Step 5:
The number 3 fits into 8 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19982.0
Subtracting 6 from 8 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
3 can be fit into 23 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 199827.0
Subtract 21 from 23 to 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 7:
The number 3 fits into 20 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 199827.6
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 199827.66
If we take 18 away from 20, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 199827.66 and a remainder of 0.002.
