We look at the division of 46998486 by 140 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 140 in 46998486.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 140 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 140

Moving on to step 2:
The number 140 fits into 46 0 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 46 and we're left with 46.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 469 / 140

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 469 by 140, we get 3 and a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 420 from 469.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 499 / 140

Going ahead to step 4:
499 divided by 140 is 3 with a remainder of 79.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtract 420 from 499 to get 79.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 79, then repeat: 798 / 140

On to step 5:
The number 140 fits into 798 5 times, leaving a remainder of 98.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 335.0
If we take 700 away from 798, we end up with 98.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 984 / 140

Let's proceed to step 6:
984 divided by 140 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3357.0
If we take 980 away from 984, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 140

Going ahead to step 7:
48 divided by 140 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 33570.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 486 / 140

Going ahead to step 8:
486 divided by 140 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 335703.0
If we subtract 420 from 486, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
140 goes into 660 4 times with a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 335703.4
If we subtract 560 from 660, we get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
1000 divided by 140 is 7 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 335703.47
If we take 980 away from 1000, 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.

On to step 11:
200 divided by 140 is 1 with a remainder of 60.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 335703.471
If we take 140 away from 200, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 140 fits into 600 4 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 335703.4714
If we subtract 560 from 600, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 140 fits into 400 2 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 335703.47142
Deduct 280 from 400 and we're left with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 140 fits into 1200 8 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 335703.471428
If we subtract 1120 from 1200, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
140 can be fit into 800 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 100.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 335703.4714285
If we subtract 700 from 800, we get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Step 16:
140 can be fit into 1000 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 335703.47142857
Subtract 980 from 1000 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.

The final result is 335703.47142857 with a remainder of 2e-08.
