494388 ÷ 9 
We're looking to find how many times 9 goes into 494388.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 9, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 9

On to step 2:
If we divide 49 by 9, we get 5 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 45 from 49.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 44 / 9

Moving on to step 3:
9 goes into 44 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtract 36 from 44 to get 8.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 83 / 9

On to step 4:
The number 9 fits into 83 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 549.0
Subtract 81 from 83 to get 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 9

Going ahead to step 5:
9 can be fit into 28 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5493.0
Subtracting 27 from 28 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 9

On to step 6:
9 goes into 18 2 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 54932.0
If we take 18 away from 18, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
9 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54932.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 9, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 54932.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 54932.0 with a balance of 0.0.
