324978 ÷ 74 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 324978.

On to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 32 / 74

On to step 2:
74 can be fit into 32 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 32 and we're left with 32.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 324 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
74 goes into 324 4 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 296 from 324.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 289 / 74

On to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 289 3 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we take 222 away from 289, we end up with 67.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 67, then repeat: 677 / 74

On to step 5:
If we divide 677 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 439.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 666 from 677.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 118 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
118 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4391.0
Deduct 74 from 118 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 440 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4391.5
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 370 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4391.59
Subtract 666 from 700 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
340 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4391.594
Subtract 296 from 340 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4391.5945
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 370 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 700 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4391.59459
Subtract 666 from 700 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 12:
74 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4391.594594
If we subtract 296 from 340, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 440 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4391.5945945
If we take 370 away from 440, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
74 goes into 700 9 times with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4391.59459459
Subtracting 666 from 700 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4391.59459459 with a balance of 3.4e-08.
