We divide 497492 by 28
Our goal is to divide 497492 by 28.

On to step 1:
28 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 28

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 49 by 28, we get 1 with a remainder of 21.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 28 from 49 leaves us with 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
217 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 196 from 217.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 214 / 28

Let's proceed to step 4:
28 goes into 214 7 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 177.0
Deduct 196 from 214 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 189 / 28

Step 5:
When dividing 189 by 28, we get 6 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1776.0
If we subtract 168 from 189, we get 21.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 212 / 28

Moving on to step 6:
28 goes into 212 7 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17767.0
If we take 196 away from 212, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
160 divided by 28 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17767.5
If we take 140 away from 160, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
200 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17767.57
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 196 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
28 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17767.571
Subtract 28 from 40 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 120 by 28, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17767.5714
If we take 112 away from 120, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
28 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17767.57142
Deduct 56 from 80 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 240 by 28, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17767.571428
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
160 divided by 28 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17767.5714285
Subtract 140 from 160 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17767.57142857
If we subtract 196 from 200, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 17767.57142857 with a remaining 4e-09.
