490895 divided by 2 
Let's see how many times 2 fits into 490895.

Advancing to step 1:
2 can be fit into 4 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 4 away from 4, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 2

Step 2:
If we divide 9 by 2, we get 4 and a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 8 from 9 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 10 / 2

On to step 3:
The number 2 fits into 10 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 245.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 10 from 10.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 2

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 2 fits into 8 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2454.0
Deduct 8 from 8 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 9 / 2

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 2 fits into 9 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24544.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 8 from 9.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 2

On to step 6:
2 goes into 15 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 245447.0
Subtract 14 from 15 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
10 divided by 2 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 245447.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 10 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 245447.5
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 245447.5
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 245447.5 with a balance of 0.0.
