We divide 494399 by 16
Let's see how many times 16 fits into 494399.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 16

Step 2:
49 divided by 16 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 48 from 49 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 16

Going ahead to step 3:
16 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 143 / 16

On to step 4:
When dividing 143 by 16, we get 8 with a remainder of 15.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 308.0
Subtract 128 from 143 to get 15.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 159 / 16

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 159 by 16, we get 9 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3089.0
Subtract 144 from 159 to get 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 16

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 159 by 16, we get 9 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30899.0
Subtracting 144 from 159 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 150 by 16, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30899.9
Subtract 144 from 150 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
60 divided by 16 is 3 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 30899.93
Deduct 48 from 60 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 16, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 30899.937
If we take 112 away from 120, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
80 divided by 16 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30899.9375
Subtract 80 from 80 to 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30899.9375
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 12:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 30899.9375
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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 30899.9375 with a balance of 0.0.
