We're dividing 972618 by 26 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 26 in 972618.

On to step 1:
26 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 26

Step 2:
26 goes into 97 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 78 from 97 leaves us with 19.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 192 / 26

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 192 by 26, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 182 from 192 leaves us with 10.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 106 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
The number 26 fits into 106 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 374.0
Subtract 104 from 106 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
26 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3740.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 218 / 26

Step 6:
When dividing 218 by 26, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37408.0
Deduct 208 from 218 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 100 by 26, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37408.3
Subtracting 78 from 100 leaves us with 22.
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:
26 can be fit into 220 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37408.38
Subtract 208 from 220 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
26 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37408.384
If we subtract 104 from 120, 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.

Advancing to step 10:
26 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37408.3846
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 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 11:
26 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37408.38461
If we subtract 26 from 40, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37408.384615
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 130 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 26 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37408.3846153
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 14:
220 divided by 26 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37408.38461538
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 208 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 37408.38461538, and the remainder is 1.2e-08.
