Let's divide 542695 by 3
Our goal is to divide 542695 by 3.

Step 1:
5 divided by 3 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 3 away from 5, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 3

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 3, we get 8 with a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 24 away from 24, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 2 / 3

On to step 3:
When dividing 2 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 180.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 3

Step 4:
3 goes into 26 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1808.0
If we subtract 24 from 26, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
3 goes into 29 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18089.0
Subtract 27 from 29 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 25 by 3, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 180898.0
Subtracting 24 from 25 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:
3 goes into 10 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 180898.3
Subtracting 9 from 10 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.

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: 180898.33
Subtracting 9 from 10 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.

The final result is 180898.33 with a remainder of 0.001.
