Let's divide 73888981 by 3
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 73888981.

Moving on to step 1:
3 goes into 7 2 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 6 from 7 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 13 / 3

On to step 2:
The number 3 fits into 13 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 12 away from 13, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 3

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 18 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 246.0
Subtracting 18 from 18 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 3

On to step 4:
3 goes into 8 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2462.0
If we take 6 away from 8, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
3 can be fit into 28 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24629.0
Subtract 27 from 28 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
3 goes into 19 6 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 246296.0
Subtracting 18 from 19 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 3

Going ahead to step 7:
3 goes into 18 6 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2462966.0
Subtracting 18 from 18 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 3

Step 8:
The number 3 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24629660.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 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 9:
If we divide 10 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24629660.3
Deduct 9 from 10 and we're left 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 10:
3 can be fit into 10 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 24629660.33
If we subtract 9 from 10, we 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.

Our division results in 24629660.33 with a remaining 0.001.
