Let's divide 246538 by 72
The aim is to understand the frequency of 72 in 246538.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 246 / 72

Step 3:
72 goes into 246 3 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 216 from 246, we get 30.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 305 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
72 goes into 305 4 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtracting 288 from 305 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 173 / 72

Step 5:
If we divide 173 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 342.0
Subtract 144 from 173 to get 29.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 298 / 72

On to step 6:
72 goes into 298 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3424.0
If we subtract 288 from 298, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3424.1
If we take 72 away from 100, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 64.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3424.13
If we take 216 away from 280, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 640 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3424.138
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 576 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3424.1388
If we subtract 576 from 640, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3424.1388 and a remainder of 0.00064.
