We divide 15813862 by 494
We're looking to find how many times 494 goes into 15813862.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 494 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 494

Moving on to step 2:
494 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 158 / 494

Moving on to step 3:
494 goes into 158 0 times with a remainder of 158.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 158 leaves us with 158.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 158, then carry on: 1581 / 494

Step 4:
1581 divided by 494 is 3 with a remainder of 99.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 1482 from 1581, we get 99.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 99 and repeat the process: 993 / 494

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 993 by 494, we get 2 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtracting 988 from 993 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 494

Step 6:
494 goes into 58 0 times with a remainder of 58.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 320.0
Subtract 0 from 58 to get 58.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 586 / 494

Moving on to step 7:
The number 494 fits into 586 1 times, leaving a remainder of 92.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3201.0
Subtracting 494 from 586 leaves us with 92.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 92, then repeat: 922 / 494

Moving on to step 8:
922 divided by 494 is 1 with a remainder of 428.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32011.0
Deduct 494 from 922 and we're left with 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4280, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 494 fits into 4280 8 times, leaving a remainder of 328.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32011.8
The remainder is 328 after subtracting 3952 from 4280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3280, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
494 can be fit into 3280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 316.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32011.86
Deduct 2964 from 3280 and we're left with 316.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
494 can be fit into 3160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 196.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32011.866
If we take 2964 away from 3160, we end up with 196.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 32011.866 with a balance of 0.0196.
