Let's divide 988056 by 3
The aim is to understand the frequency of 3 in 988056.

Step 1:
3 can be fit into 9 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 9 from 9 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 3

On to step 2:
When dividing 8 by 3, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtract 6 from 8 to get 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 3

Let's proceed to step 3:
3 goes into 28 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 329.0
Subtracting 27 from 28 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 10 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3293.0
If we take 9 away from 10, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 3

On to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 15 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32935.0
If we subtract 15 from 15, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 6 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
3 goes into 6 2 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 329352.0
Deduct 6 from 6 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
3 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 329352.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 329352.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 329352.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
