We look at the division of 496505 by 3 
We want to divide 496505 by 3.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 3, we get 1 and a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 3 from 4 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 3

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 19 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 18 from 19, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 3

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 16 by 3, we get 5 with a remainder of 1.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 165.0
If we subtract 15 from 16, we get 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 15 by 3, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1655.0
If we take 15 away from 15, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 0 / 3

On to step 5:
When dividing 0 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16550.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 5 / 3

On to step 6:
3 goes into 5 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 165501.0
If we subtract 3 from 5, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 3 fits into 20 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 165501.6
If we subtract 18 from 20, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 20 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 165501.66
Subtracting 18 from 20 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final result is 165501.66 with a remainder of 0.002.
