We're dividing 3255148 by 494 
Our goal is to divide 3255148 by 494.

Step 1:
The number 494 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 32 / 494

Going ahead to step 2:
494 goes into 32 0 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 32 to get 32.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 325 / 494

Moving on to step 3:
325 divided by 494 is 0 with a remainder of 325.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 325 and we're left with 325.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 325, then repeat: 3255 / 494

Step 4:
If we divide 3255 by 494, we get 6 and a remainder of 291.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 2964 from 3255, we get 291.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 291 and repeat the process: 2911 / 494

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 2911 by 494, we get 5 and a remainder of 441.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 65.0
If we take 2470 away from 2911, we end up with 441.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 441, then repeat: 4414 / 494

Step 6:
494 can be fit into 4414 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 462.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 658.0
Subtracting 3952 from 4414 leaves us with 462.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 462 and continue: 4628 / 494

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 4628 by 494, we get 9 and a remainder of 182.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6589.0
Deduct 4446 from 4628 and we're left with 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
1820 divided by 494 is 3 with a remainder of 338.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6589.3
Subtracting 1482 from 1820 leaves us with 338.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3380, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 3380 by 494, we get 6 with a remainder of 416.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6589.36
Subtracting 2964 from 3380 leaves us with 416.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 4160 by 494, we get 8 with a remainder of 208.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6589.368
Subtract 3952 from 4160 to get 208.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
494 goes into 2080 4 times with a remainder of 104.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6589.3684
Subtracting 1976 from 2080 leaves us with 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Step 12:
1040 divided by 494 is 2 with a remainder of 52.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6589.36842
Subtracting 988 from 1040 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
494 goes into 520 1 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6589.368421
If we subtract 494 from 520, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 260 by 494, we get 0 and a remainder of 260.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6589.368421
Subtracting 0 from 260 leaves us with 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
The number 494 fits into 2600 5 times, leaving a remainder of 130.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6589.36842105
Subtract 2470 from 2600 to get 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6589.36842105 with a remaining 1.3e-07.
