617691 divided by 3 
We want to divide 617691 by 3.

Step 1:
3 goes into 6 2 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 6 away from 6, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 3 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 3

On to step 3:
3 goes into 17 5 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 205.0
Subtract 15 from 17 to get 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 3

Moving on to step 4:
3 goes into 26 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2058.0
Subtract 24 from 26 to get 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 3

Going ahead to step 5:
3 goes into 29 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20589.0
Subtract 27 from 29 to get 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 21 by 3, we get 7 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 205897.0
Subtracting 21 from 21 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 205897.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
3 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 205897.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 205897.0 with a remaining 0.0.
