Let's divide 5711694 by 494
We're looking to find how many times 494 goes into 5711694.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 494, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 57 / 494

Advancing to step 2:
494 goes into 57 0 times with a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 57, we get 57.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 571 / 494

On to step 3:
494 can be fit into 571 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 77.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 494 from 571 to get 77.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 77 and continue: 771 / 494

Advancing to step 4:
The number 494 fits into 771 1 times, leaving a remainder of 277.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 494 from 771 leaves us with 277.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 277, then carry on: 2776 / 494

Moving on to step 5:
494 can be fit into 2776 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 306.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 115.0
Subtract 2470 from 2776 to get 306.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 306 and continue with: 3069 / 494

Advancing to step 6:
The number 494 fits into 3069 6 times, leaving a remainder of 105.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1156.0
Subtract 2964 from 3069 to get 105.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 105 and continue: 1054 / 494

On to step 7:
If we divide 1054 by 494, we get 2 and a remainder of 66.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11562.0
Subtracting 988 from 1054 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 8:
660 divided by 494 is 1 with a remainder of 166.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11562.1
Subtracting 494 from 660 leaves us with 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
1660 divided by 494 is 3 with a remainder of 178.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11562.13
Deduct 1482 from 1660 and we're left with 178.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

Step 10:
494 can be fit into 1780 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 298.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11562.133
Subtract 1482 from 1780 to get 298.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2980, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11562.133 and a remainder of 0.0298.
