472098 divided by 3 
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 472098.

Step 1:
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: 1.0
Deduct 3 from 4 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 3

Advancing to step 2:
The number 3 fits into 17 5 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 15 from 17 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 3

On to step 3:
If we divide 22 by 3, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 157.0
If we take 21 away from 22, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 10 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
3 goes into 10 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1573.0
Deduct 9 from 10 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 19 / 3

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 19 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 15736.0
If we take 18 away from 19, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 3

On to step 6:
3 can be fit into 18 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 157366.0
Subtracting 18 from 18 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 3 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 157366.0
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
3 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 157366.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 157366.0 and a remainder of 0.0.
