298641 divided by 3 
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 298641.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 3 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 3

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 3 fits into 29 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 27 from 29 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 3

Step 3:
If we divide 28 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 99.0
Subtracting 27 from 28 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 16 by 3, we get 5 with a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 995.0
Subtracting 15 from 16 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
3 can be fit into 14 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9954.0
If we subtract 12 from 14, we get 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
21 divided by 3 is 7 with a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 99547.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 21 from 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 3 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 99547.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 99547.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 99547.0 with a remaining 0.0.
