How does ablative DR interact with armour divisors.

How does ablative DR interact with armour divisors? I've been trying to work it out.
Example:

Armour, Ablative, 200.

Gauss rifle, Armour divisor 3.

Let's say the rifle does 30 damage on average, and hits 6 times in a burst of fire.

So, we divide 200 by 3, resulting in 67 DR rounding.
Then we divide 170 by 3, resulting in 57 DR, rounding.
Then 140, resulting in 47 DR.
Then 110, resulting in 37 DR.
Then 80, 27 DR, meaning 3 damage to the target.
Then 50, 16 DR, meaning 14 damage gets through.

Is this correct?
