We're dividing 502924 by 3 
We want to figure out the number of times 502924 can be divided by 3.

Moving on to step 1:
3 goes into 5 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 3 from 5 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
3 goes into 20 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 18 from 20 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 3

Moving on to step 3:
3 can be fit into 22 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167.0
Deduct 21 from 22 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
19 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1676.0
Deduct 18 from 19 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 3

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 12 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 16764.0
Subtracting 12 from 12 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 4 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 167641.0
Subtract 3 from 4 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 7:
3 can be fit into 10 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 167641.3
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 9 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 167641.33
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 167641.33 and a remainder of 0.001.
