In long division, you divide the dividend (727) by the divisor (3) by following a series of steps. First, you determine how many times 3 can go into 7 (which is 2 times). Next, you multiply 2 by 3 to get 6, and subtract 6 from 7 to get 1. Then, bring down the next digit to make 17. Repeat the process to find that 3 goes into 17 five times, resulting in a quotient of 242 with a remainder of 1.
