Let's divide 242523 by 3
Our goal is to divide 242523 by 3.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 3

On to step 2:
3 can be fit into 24 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 24 from 24.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 3

On to step 3:
3 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 80.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 3

Step 4:
3 can be fit into 25 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 808.0
If we subtract 24 from 25, we get 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
12 divided by 3 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8084.0
If we take 12 away from 12, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 3 / 3

Let's proceed to step 6:
3 can be fit into 3 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 80841.0
Subtract 3 from 3 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 80841.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 8:
3 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 80841.0
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.

The final outcome is 80841.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
