506056 divided by 3 
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 506056.

Step 1:
The number 3 fits into 5 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 3 from 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 3

Moving on to step 2:
3 goes into 20 6 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 3

On to step 3:
If we divide 26 by 3, we get 8 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 168.0
Deduct 24 from 26 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
The number 3 fits into 20 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1686.0
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
3 goes into 25 8 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16868.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 24 from 25.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 3

On to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 16 5 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 168685.0
Subtract 15 from 16 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.

Step 7:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 168685.3
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.

On to step 8:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 168685.33
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 9 from 10.
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 168685.33 with a balance of 0.001.
