We're dividing 494041 by 8 
We want to divide 494041 by 8.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 8

Going ahead to step 2:
8 goes into 49 6 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 48 from 49 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 8

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 14 by 8, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 61.0
If we subtract 8 from 14, we get 6.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 60 / 8

Step 4:
The number 8 fits into 60 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 617.0
If we take 56 away from 60, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 44 / 8

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 8 fits into 44 5 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6175.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 40 from 44.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 41 / 8

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 41 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61755.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 40 from 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 8, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 61755.1
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 8 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 8, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61755.12
Deduct 16 from 20 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
40 divided by 8 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61755.125
If we take 40 away from 40, 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 8 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 61755.125
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

Moving on to step 11:
8 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61755.125
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

After the division, we end up with 61755.125 and a remainder of 0.0.
