This will take some work. You will need to write a little function to handle this kind of thing. As a hint,
printf("i = %d,%3.3d,%3.3d\n",i/1000000, i/1000%1000, i%1000);
would work with the number you posted. But if the number was too small or negative, there would be a problem. A negative number would be a clear problem, but you might want the leading zeros that would happen with small numbers. So you need to decide on your requirements. Do have the possibility of a a negative number? If so how should it be displayed? And so on.
