We divide 271040 by 3
Let's see how many times 3 fits into 271040.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
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

Step 2:
3 goes into 27 9 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 27 from 27 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 3:
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: 90.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 10 / 3

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 10 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 903.0
Subtract 9 from 10 to get 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 3

Step 5:
3 goes into 14 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9034.0
Deduct 12 from 14 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
3 goes into 20 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 90346.0
Subtract 18 from 20 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
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: 90346.6
Subtract 18 from 20 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.

Step 8:
20 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 90346.66
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.

The final result is 90346.66 with a remainder of 0.002.
