We look at the division of 557254 by 3 
Our goal is to divide 557254 by 3.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 3 from 5, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 3

Going ahead to step 2:
25 divided by 3 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 24 from 25.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
17 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 185.0
If we subtract 15 from 17, we get 2.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
3 can be fit into 22 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1857.0
Subtract 21 from 22 to get 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 3

Let's proceed to step 5:
3 goes into 15 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18575.0
Subtracting 15 from 15 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
3 can be fit into 4 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 185751.0
Deduct 3 from 4 and we're left 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.

On to step 7:
10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 185751.3
Deduct 9 from 10 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 185751.33
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.

The final result is 185751.33 with a remainder of 0.001.
