Let's divide 78738 by 85
The aim is to understand the frequency of 85 in 78738.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 85

On to step 2:
When dividing 78 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 78.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 78, we end up with 78.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 78, then carry on: 787 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 787 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 765 away from 787, we end up with 22.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 223 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
85 can be fit into 223 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 92.0
Subtracting 170 from 223 leaves us with 53.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 538 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
85 can be fit into 538 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 926.0
Subtract 510 from 538 to get 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 6:
When dividing 280 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 926.3
Subtract 255 from 280 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 926.32
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 170 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
85 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 926.329
If we subtract 765 from 800, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 350 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 926.3294
Subtracting 340 from 350 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 100 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 926.32941
If we subtract 85 from 100, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 85 fits into 150 1 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 926.329411
If we subtract 85 from 150, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Our division results in 926.329411 with a remaining 6.5e-06.
