We divide 647838 by 3
Let's see how many times 3 fits into 647838.

Step 1:
3 can be fit into 6 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 6 from 6.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 3

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 4 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 3 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 3

On to step 3:
When dividing 17 by 3, we get 5 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 215.0
Subtract 15 from 17 to get 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 3

On to step 4:
3 can be fit into 28 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2159.0
Subtracting 27 from 28 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 13 / 3

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 13 by 3, we get 4 with a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21594.0
If we subtract 12 from 13, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 3

Step 6:
When dividing 18 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 215946.0
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.

On to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 215946.0
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
3 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 215946.0
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.

The quotient of the division is 215946.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
