Let's divide 388165 by 3
We want to divide 388165 by 3.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 3 from 3 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 3

Advancing to step 2:
3 goes into 8 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 6 from 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 3

Going ahead to step 3:
28 divided by 3 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 129.0
Subtracting 27 from 28 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 3

Step 4:
When dividing 11 by 3, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1293.0
Deduct 9 from 11 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 26 by 3, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12938.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 24 from 26.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 25 by 3, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 129388.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 24 from 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
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: 129388.3
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.

On to 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: 129388.33
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 quotient of the division is 129388.33, and the remainder is 0.001.
