Let's divide 17424955 by 499
The aim is to understand the frequency of 499 in 17424955.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 499 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 499

On to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 499, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 174 / 499

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 174 by 499, we get 0 and a remainder of 174.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 174 after subtracting 0 from 174.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 174 and continue: 1742 / 499

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 499 fits into 1742 3 times, leaving a remainder of 245.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 1497 away from 1742, we end up with 245.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 245 and continue: 2454 / 499

Advancing to step 5:
499 can be fit into 2454 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 458.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtract 1996 from 2454 to get 458.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 458, then repeat: 4589 / 499

On to step 6:
499 can be fit into 4589 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 98.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 349.0
Subtract 4491 from 4589 to get 98.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 98, then repeat: 985 / 499

On to step 7:
499 can be fit into 985 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 486.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3491.0
Deduct 499 from 985 and we're left with 486.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 486 and continue with: 4865 / 499

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 499 fits into 4865 9 times, leaving a remainder of 374.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34919.0
If we subtract 4491 from 4865, we get 374.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3740, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 3740 by 499, we get 7 and a remainder of 247.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34919.7
Subtracting 3493 from 3740 leaves us with 247.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 499 fits into 2470 4 times, leaving a remainder of 474.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34919.74
If we take 1996 away from 2470, we end up with 474.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 4740 by 499, we get 9 and a remainder of 249.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34919.749
If we take 4491 away from 4740, we end up with 249.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2490, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 499 fits into 2490 4 times, leaving a remainder of 494.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34919.7494
Subtract 1996 from 2490 to get 494.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4940, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 4940 by 499, we get 9 with a remainder of 449.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 34919.74949
The remainder is 449 after subtracting 4491 from 4940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
4490 divided by 499 is 8 with a remainder of 498.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34919.749498
If we take 3992 away from 4490, we end up with 498.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 499 fits into 4980 9 times, leaving a remainder of 489.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34919.7494989
If we subtract 4491 from 4980, we get 489.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4890, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
If we divide 4890 by 499, we get 9 and a remainder of 399.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 34919.74949899
The remainder is 399 after subtracting 4491 from 4890.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3990, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 34919.74949899, with a leftover of 3.99e-07.
