Let's divide 12436740 by 492
We want to figure out the number of times 12436740 can be divided by 492.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 492, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 492

On to step 2:
If we divide 12 by 492, we get 0 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 124 / 492

On to step 3:
124 divided by 492 is 0 with a remainder of 124.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 124 leaves us with 124.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 124 and continue with: 1243 / 492

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 1243 by 492, we get 2 and a remainder of 259.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 984 from 1243 to get 259.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 259 and repeat the process: 2596 / 492

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 492 fits into 2596 5 times, leaving a remainder of 136.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we take 2460 away from 2596, we end up with 136.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 136, then repeat: 1367 / 492

On to step 6:
1367 divided by 492 is 2 with a remainder of 383.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 252.0
Subtracting 984 from 1367 leaves us with 383.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 383, then repeat: 3834 / 492

Step 7:
3834 divided by 492 is 7 with a remainder of 390.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2527.0
If we subtract 3444 from 3834, we get 390.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 390 and repeat the process: 3900 / 492

Going ahead to step 8:
492 can be fit into 3900 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 456.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25277.0
Subtract 3444 from 3900 to get 456.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
492 can be fit into 4560 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 132.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 25277.9
If we take 4428 away from 4560, we end up with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 492 fits into 1320 2 times, leaving a remainder of 336.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25277.92
Subtract 984 from 1320 to get 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
492 goes into 3360 6 times with a remainder of 408.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25277.926
Subtract 2952 from 3360 to get 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
492 can be fit into 4080 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 144.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25277.9268
If we subtract 3936 from 4080, we get 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
492 goes into 1440 2 times with a remainder of 456.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25277.92682
The remainder is 456 after subtracting 984 from 1440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4560, and continue the process.

Step 14:
492 goes into 4560 9 times with a remainder of 132.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25277.926829
Subtracting 4428 from 4560 leaves us with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
492 can be fit into 1320 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 336.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25277.9268292
Subtract 984 from 1320 to get 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
492 can be fit into 3360 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 408.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25277.92682926
Subtract 2952 from 3360 to get 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 25277.92682926 and a remainder of 4.08e-07.
