We divide 31538952 by 838
The aim is to understand the frequency of 838 in 31538952.

Step 1:
The number 838 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 838

Step 2:
When dividing 31 by 838, we get 0 with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 315 / 838

Step 3:
315 divided by 838 is 0 with a remainder of 315.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 315, we get 315.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 315 and repeat the process: 3153 / 838

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 3153 by 838, we get 3 and a remainder of 639.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 2514 away from 3153, we end up with 639.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 639 and continue with: 6398 / 838

Let's proceed to step 5:
6398 divided by 838 is 7 with a remainder of 532.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 5866 from 6398 leaves us with 532.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 532, then repeat: 5329 / 838

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 5329 by 838, we get 6 with a remainder of 301.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 376.0
Subtract 5028 from 5329 to get 301.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 301, then repeat: 3015 / 838

Step 7:
If we divide 3015 by 838, we get 3 and a remainder of 501.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3763.0
The remainder is 501 after subtracting 2514 from 3015.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 501 and repeat the process: 5012 / 838

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 5012 by 838, we get 5 with a remainder of 822.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37635.0
Deduct 4190 from 5012 and we're left with 822.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
838 goes into 8220 9 times with a remainder of 678.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37635.9
If we subtract 7542 from 8220, we get 678.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 6780 by 838, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37635.98
Subtracting 6704 from 6780 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
838 can be fit into 760 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 760.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37635.98
Subtracting 0 from 760 leaves us with 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
838 can be fit into 7600 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37635.9809
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 7542 from 7600.
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 13:
838 goes into 580 0 times with a remainder of 580.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37635.9809
Subtracting 0 from 580 leaves us with 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5800, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
5800 divided by 838 is 6 with a remainder of 772.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37635.980906
The remainder is 772 after subtracting 5028 from 5800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7720, and continue the process.

Step 15:
7720 divided by 838 is 9 with a remainder of 178.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37635.9809069
The remainder is 178 after subtracting 7542 from 7720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 1780 by 838, we get 2 and a remainder of 104.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37635.98090692
If we take 1676 away from 1780, we end up with 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 37635.98090692 with a balance of 1.04e-07.
