789479 ÷ 3 
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 789479.

Step 1:
7 divided by 3 is 2 with a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 6 from 7 to get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 3

Step 2:
3 goes into 18 6 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 18 from 18.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 9 / 3

Let's proceed to step 3:
3 goes into 9 3 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 263.0
Deduct 9 from 9 and we're left with 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
3 can be fit into 4 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2631.0
If we subtract 3 from 4, we get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
3 goes into 17 5 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26315.0
Subtract 15 from 17 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 3

On to step 6:
If we divide 29 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 263159.0
If we take 27 away from 29, we end up 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 20 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 263159.6
Subtract 18 from 20 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
20 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 263159.66
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.

The final result is 263159.66 with a remainder of 0.002.
