We look at the division of 989264 by 3 
We want to divide 989264 by 3.

Let's proceed to step 1:
9 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 9 from 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 3

Moving on to step 2:
The number 3 fits into 8 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 6 from 8, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 3

On to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 29 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 329.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 27 from 29.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 3

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 22 by 3, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3297.0
Subtracting 21 from 22 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
16 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 32975.0
Deduct 15 from 16 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 3

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 14 by 3, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 329754.0
Subtract 12 from 14 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 20 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 329754.6
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
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:
3 can be fit into 20 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 329754.66
Subtracting 18 from 20 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 329754.66 with a balance of 0.002.
