Depends if you’re still married to your spouse.

If married then what is the procedure? If not then what is the procedure?

You have to be both married AND have been an LPR for 3 years, your spouse is required to attend the interview so USCIS can evaluate if your marriage is bona fide. If divorced, you’re eligible after 5 years of being an LPR.

In addition to those rules, you need to make sure you didn't brake continuous residence, spent enough time in the US (physical presence) and have good moral character (no deportable offences, paid taxes etc).
