118879 ÷ 24 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 24 in 118879.

Let's proceed to step 1:
24 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 24

Going ahead to step 2:
24 can be fit into 11 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 24

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 118 by 24, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 96 from 118 and we're left with 22.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 228 / 24

Step 4:
24 can be fit into 228 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 216 from 228.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 24

Moving on to step 5:
The number 24 fits into 127 5 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 495.0
If we take 120 away from 127, we end up with 7.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 24

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 79 by 24, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4953.0
If we take 72 away from 79, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
24 can be fit into 70 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4953.2
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 48 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 8:
24 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4953.29
Subtracting 216 from 220 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
40 divided by 24 is 1 with a remainder of 16.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4953.291
If we subtract 24 from 40, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 24, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4953.2916
Deduct 144 from 160 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 24 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4953.29166
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4953.29166 with a balance of 1.6e-05.
