Let's divide 862612 by 3
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 862612.

Moving on to step 1:
3 goes into 8 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 6 away from 8, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 3

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 26 by 3, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 24 from 26.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 3

Step 3:
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: 287.0
Deduct 21 from 22 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
16 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 1.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2875.0
If we subtract 15 from 16, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 3

On to step 5:
When dividing 11 by 3, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28753.0
Subtract 9 from 11 to get 2.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
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: 287537.0
Subtracting 21 from 22 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
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: 287537.3
If we take 9 away from 10, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
3 goes into 10 3 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 287537.33
Subtract 9 from 10 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 287537.33 with a balance of 0.001.
