8732729 divided by 254 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 254 in 8732729.

On to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 254, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 254

Let's proceed to step 2:
254 can be fit into 87 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 87.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 87, we get 87.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 87, then carry on: 873 / 254

On to step 3:
The number 254 fits into 873 3 times, leaving a remainder of 111.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 111 after subtracting 762 from 873.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 111, then carry on: 1112 / 254

Going ahead to step 4:
1112 divided by 254 is 4 with a remainder of 96.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34.0
Deduct 1016 from 1112 and we're left with 96.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 96, then repeat: 967 / 254

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 967 by 254, we get 3 and a remainder of 205.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 343.0
Deduct 762 from 967 and we're left with 205.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 205 and repeat the process: 2052 / 254

Going ahead to step 6:
2052 divided by 254 is 8 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3438.0
Subtracting 2032 from 2052 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 209 / 254

Moving on to step 7:
254 can be fit into 209 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 209.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34380.0
If we take 0 away from 209, we end up with 209.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2090, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 254 fits into 2090 8 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34380.8
If we subtract 2032 from 2090, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
254 can be fit into 580 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34380.82
If we take 508 away from 580, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 720 by 254, we get 2 and a remainder of 212.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 34380.822
If we take 508 away from 720, we end up with 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 34380.822, and the remainder is 0.0212.
