To divide two decimals, we just need to perform regular division. Moving the decimal point of the divisor gives us:
$$ \begin{array}{@{}c@{\;}c@{}c@{}c@{}c@{}c@{}c}
& & . & 5 & 7 & & \
\cline{2-7}
1 & | & . & 1 & 1 & 4 & \
& & . & 5 & 7 & & \
\cline{2-4}
& & & 5 & 7 & 0 & \
\end{array} $$
Therefore, $\frac{0.114}{0.57} = 0.2$. The correct answer is $\boxed{\textbf{(C)}}$.
