459901 ÷ 3 
We're looking to find how many times 3 goes into 459901.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 3 fits into 4 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 3 from 4 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 3

On to step 2:
15 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 15 away from 15, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 9 / 3

On to step 3:
3 can be fit into 9 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 153.0
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 9 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 9 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1533.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 9 from 9.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 0 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
3 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15330.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 1 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 153300.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 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:
10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 153300.3
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 9 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 10 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 153300.33
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 9 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Our division results in 153300.33 with a remaining 0.001.
