Let's divide 491764 by 3
Our goal is to divide 491764 by 3.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 3 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 3 from 4, we get 1.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
19 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 18 from 19, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 3

On to step 3:
When dividing 11 by 3, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 163.0
If we take 9 away from 11, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 27 by 3, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1639.0
If we subtract 27 from 27, we get 0.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 6 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
3 can be fit into 6 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16392.0
If we subtract 6 from 6, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 4 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 4 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 163921.0
Subtracting 3 from 4 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 163921.3
Subtract 9 from 10 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 163921.33
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.

The final result is 163921.33 with a remainder of 0.001.
