Let's divide 54535 by 3
We want to divide 54535 by 3.

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
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 3 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 3

On to step 2:
The number 3 fits into 24 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 24 from 24 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 5 / 3

Let's proceed to step 3:
3 can be fit into 5 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 181.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 3 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 23 by 3, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1817.0
Subtracting 21 from 23 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 3

Step 5:
25 divided by 3 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18178.0
If we take 24 away from 25, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 10 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18178.3
If we take 9 away from 10, we end up 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:
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: 18178.33
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.

The quotient of the division is 18178.33, and the remainder is 0.001.
