390179 divided by 3 
Our goal is to divide 390179 by 3.

Advancing to step 1:
3 can be fit into 3 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 3 from 3 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 3

Advancing to step 2:
3 goes into 9 3 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
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

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 0 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 130.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 3

On to step 4:
When dividing 1 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1300.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
3 can be fit into 17 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13005.0
Subtract 15 from 17 to get 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 3

On to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 29 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 130059.0
If we subtract 27 from 29, 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.

On to step 7:
3 goes into 20 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 130059.6
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
20 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 130059.66
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 130059.66 with a remaining 0.002.
