We divide 494091 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 494091.

Advancing to step 1:
40 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 49 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 40 from 49 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 94 / 40

On to step 3:
40 can be fit into 94 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 80 from 94.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 140 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
140 divided by 40 is 3 with a remainder of 20.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123.0
If we subtract 120 from 140, we get 20.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 209 / 40

On to step 5:
40 can be fit into 209 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1235.0
If we take 200 away from 209, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 91 / 40

Moving on to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 91 2 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12352.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 80 from 91.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 40, we get 2 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12352.2
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 80 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 40, we get 7 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12352.27
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
40 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12352.275
Subtracting 200 from 200 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12352.275
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.

Step 11:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12352.275
If we take 0 away from 0, 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.

The quotient of the division is 12352.275, and the remainder is 0.0.
