Let's divide 980723 by 3
Let's see how many times 3 fits into 980723.

Step 1:
The number 3 fits into 9 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 3

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 8 by 3, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Deduct 6 from 8 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 3

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 20 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 326.0
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 27 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3269.0
Deduct 27 from 27 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 2 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 2 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32690.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 3

Let's proceed to step 6:
3 goes into 23 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 326907.0
If we take 21 away from 23, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
20 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 326907.6
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
3 can be fit into 20 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 326907.66
If we subtract 18 from 20, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 326907.66 with a remaining 0.002.
