[PIC] 9 bit binary to digits?

Hi all. I'm thinking of a project where I'll have a 9 bit binary
number, and I'll want to display it on a 3 digit 7 segment display. To
do this I'll need to extract the hundreds, tens, and ones digits from
the number. The PICList.org website has an 8 bit version to do this
(http://www.piclist.org/techref/microchip/math/radix/b2oth-8b3d-jsv.htm).
Has anyone seen a 9 bit version (or a higher bit version that's easily
foolable, I guess up to 16 bit would be easy)?

Binary maths and translations aren't my strong point so I'd love to
see an example rather than trying to write one myself.

Thanks!

Josh
