494098 divided by 12 
We want to figure out the number of times 494098 can be divided by 12.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 12 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 12

On to step 2:
If we divide 49 by 12, we get 4 and a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 48 away from 49, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 12

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 14 by 12, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we take 12 away from 14, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 12

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 12 fits into 20 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 411.0
Subtract 12 from 20 to get 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 12

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 89 by 12, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4117.0
If we take 84 away from 89, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 12

Advancing to step 6:
The number 12 fits into 58 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41174.0
Subtracting 48 from 58 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
12 can be fit into 100 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41174.8
If we subtract 96 from 100, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
40 divided by 12 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 41174.83
If we subtract 36 from 40, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
12 can be fit into 40 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41174.833
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 41174.833 with a balance of 0.0004.
