We divide 496004 by 4
We want to divide 496004 by 4.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 4, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 4 from 4 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 4

Step 2:
The number 4 fits into 9 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 8 from 9 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 4

Step 3:
4 can be fit into 16 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 124.0
Subtract 16 from 16 to get 0.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 0 / 4

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 0 by 4, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1240.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 0 / 4

Going ahead to step 5:
4 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12400.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 4 / 4

Let's proceed to step 6:
4 divided by 4 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124001.0
If we take 4 away from 4, 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.

Moving on to step 7:
4 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 124001.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
The number 4 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 124001.0
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 124001.0 with a balance of 0.0.
