We look at the division of 971769 by 85 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 85 in 971769.

Moving on to step 1:
85 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
85 can be fit into 97 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 85 from 97 to get 12.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 121 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
85 goes into 121 1 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 85 from 121.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 367 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
85 can be fit into 367 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 114.0
Subtract 340 from 367 to get 27.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 276 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 276 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1143.0
Deduct 255 from 276 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 219 / 85

Step 6:
85 can be fit into 219 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11432.0
Subtract 170 from 219 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 490 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11432.5
If we take 425 away from 490, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 650 7 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11432.57
Deduct 595 from 650 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 9:
550 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11432.576
If we subtract 510 from 550, 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.

Advancing to step 10:
85 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11432.5764
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 340 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
85 goes into 600 7 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11432.57647
Subtract 595 from 600 to get 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 12:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11432.57647
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
85 goes into 500 5 times with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11432.5764705
Deduct 425 from 500 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Step 14:
85 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11432.57647058
Subtract 680 from 750 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11432.57647058 with a remaining 7e-08.
