We look at the division of 297742 by 3 
Our goal is to divide 297742 by 3.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 3

Going ahead to step 2:
29 divided by 3 is 9 with 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.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 27 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 99.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 27 from 27.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
7 divided by 3 is 2 with a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 992.0
Subtracting 6 from 7 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 3

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 14 by 3, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9924.0
If we subtract 12 from 14, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 3

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 22 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 99247.0
Deduct 21 from 22 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.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 99247.3
If we subtract 9 from 10, we 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 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: 99247.33
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.

The quotient of the division is 99247.33, and the remainder is 0.001.
