Let's divide 480817 by 23
The aim is to understand the frequency of 23 in 480817.

Moving on to step 1:
23 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
23 goes into 48 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 46 from 48 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 208 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 208 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 209.0
Subtracting 207 from 208 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 23

Step 5:
If we divide 11 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2090.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 117 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
23 can be fit into 117 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20905.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 115 from 117.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20905.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, we 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20905.08
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left 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.

Step 9:
The number 23 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20905.086
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 138 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 220 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20905.0869
Deduct 207 from 220 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 130 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 20905.08695
If we take 115 away from 130, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
150 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20905.086956
If we take 138 away from 150, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 goes into 120 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20905.0869565
Subtracting 115 from 120 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 14:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20905.08695652
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 20905.08695652, and the remainder is 4e-09.
