We divide 238534 by 3
We want to figure out the number of times 238534 can be divided by 3.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 3 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 3

Step 2:
3 goes into 23 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 21 away from 23, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 3

Advancing to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 28 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 27 from 28.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
3 goes into 15 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 795.0
Subtracting 15 from 15 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 3 / 3

Step 5:
If we divide 3 by 3, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7951.0
Subtract 3 from 3 to get 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 3

On to step 6:
3 goes into 4 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79511.0
Deduct 3 from 4 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.

On to step 7:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 79511.3
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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 79511.33
If we take 9 away from 10, we end up 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.

The final result is 79511.33 with a remainder of 0.001.
