18683502 divided by 494 
We're looking to find how many times 494 goes into 18683502.

On to step 1:
494 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 494

Step 2:
18 divided by 494 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 186 / 494

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 186 by 494, we get 0 and a remainder of 186.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 186, we end up with 186.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 186 and continue: 1868 / 494

Moving on to step 4:
1868 divided by 494 is 3 with a remainder of 386.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 1482 from 1868 leaves us with 386.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 386, then repeat: 3863 / 494

On to step 5:
When dividing 3863 by 494, we get 7 with a remainder of 405.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 37.0
Deduct 3458 from 3863 and we're left with 405.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 405 and repeat the process: 4055 / 494

Going ahead to step 6:
494 can be fit into 4055 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 103.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 378.0
Subtract 3952 from 4055 to get 103.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 103, then repeat: 1030 / 494

Advancing to step 7:
494 can be fit into 1030 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3782.0
If we subtract 988 from 1030, we get 42.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 422 / 494

Let's proceed to step 8:
422 divided by 494 is 0 with a remainder of 422.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37820.0
Deduct 0 from 422 and we're left with 422.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 4220 by 494, we get 8 and a remainder of 268.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37820.8
If we subtract 3952 from 4220, we get 268.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2680, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
494 goes into 2680 5 times with a remainder of 210.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37820.85
If we take 2470 away from 2680, we end up with 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 494 fits into 2100 4 times, leaving a remainder of 124.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 37820.854
If we take 1976 away from 2100, we end up with 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Step 12:
494 can be fit into 1240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 252.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37820.8542
Deduct 988 from 1240 and we're left with 252.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 494 fits into 2520 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 37820.85425
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 2470 from 2520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
494 goes into 500 1 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37820.854251
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 494 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
494 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37820.854251
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
When dividing 600 by 494, we get 1 with a remainder of 106.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37820.85425101
Subtract 494 from 600 to get 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 37820.85425101 with a balance of 1.06e-07.
