Let's divide 386964 by 3
We want to figure out the number of times 386964 can be divided by 3.

Advancing to step 1:
3 divided by 3 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 3 away from 3, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
3 can be fit into 8 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 6 from 8.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 26 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 128.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 24 from 26.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 3

On to step 4:
If we divide 29 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1289.0
If we subtract 27 from 29, we get 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 26 by 3, we get 8 and a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12898.0
If we subtract 24 from 26, we get 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 24 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 128988.0
If we take 24 away from 24, we end up 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 7:
If we divide 0 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 128988.0
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.

On to step 8:
3 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 128988.0
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.

After the division, we end up with 128988.0 and a remainder of 0.0.
