494900 divided by 74 
We want to figure out the number of times 494900 can be divided by 74.

On to step 1:
74 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
74 goes into 49 0 times with a remainder of 49.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 49, we get 49.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 494 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 74 fits into 494 6 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 444 from 494 and we're left with 50.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 509 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
509 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 65.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 66.0
Subtracting 444 from 509 leaves us with 65.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 650 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
74 goes into 650 8 times with a remainder of 58.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 668.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 592 from 650.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 58, then repeat: 580 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 580 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 62.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6687.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 518 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
74 goes into 620 8 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6687.8
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 592 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 8:
280 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6687.83
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 222 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 580 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6687.837
Subtract 518 from 580 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
620 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6687.8378
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 592 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 74 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6687.83783
Subtract 222 from 280 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 12:
74 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6687.837837
If we take 518 away from 580, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 620 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6687.8378378
Subtracting 592 from 620 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
280 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6687.83783783
Deduct 222 from 280 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6687.83783783 and a remainder of 5.8e-08.
