Let's divide 3004857 by 498
We want to divide 3004857 by 498.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 498, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 30 / 498

Moving on to step 2:
498 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 300 / 498

Moving on to step 3:
The number 498 fits into 300 0 times, leaving a remainder of 300.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 300 after subtracting 0 from 300.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 300, then repeat: 3004 / 498

Step 4:
When dividing 3004 by 498, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 2988 from 3004 and we're left with 16.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 168 / 498

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 168 by 498, we get 0 with a remainder of 168.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we take 0 away from 168, we end up with 168.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 168 and continue: 1685 / 498

Step 6:
The number 498 fits into 1685 3 times, leaving a remainder of 191.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 603.0
Subtract 1494 from 1685 to get 191.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 191, then repeat: 1917 / 498

Going ahead to step 7:
498 goes into 1917 3 times with a remainder of 423.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6033.0
Deduct 1494 from 1917 and we're left with 423.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4230, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 4230 by 498, we get 8 and a remainder of 246.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6033.8
If we take 3984 away from 4230, we end up with 246.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
498 goes into 2460 4 times with a remainder of 468.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6033.84
Subtracting 1992 from 2460 leaves us with 468.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 498 fits into 4680 9 times, leaving a remainder of 198.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6033.849
Subtracting 4482 from 4680 leaves us with 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 1980 by 498, we get 3 with a remainder of 486.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6033.8493
Subtracting 1494 from 1980 leaves us with 486.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4860, and continue the process.

Step 12:
498 goes into 4860 9 times with a remainder of 378.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6033.84939
Subtract 4482 from 4860 to get 378.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 3780 by 498, we get 7 with a remainder of 294.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6033.849397
Subtract 3486 from 3780 to get 294.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2940, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 2940 by 498, we get 5 and a remainder of 450.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6033.8493975
Subtract 2490 from 2940 to get 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4500, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
498 goes into 4500 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6033.84939759
If we take 4482 away from 4500, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The final result is 6033.84939759 with a remainder of 1.8e-08.
