257457 divided by 6 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 6 in 257457.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 6

Let's proceed to step 2:
6 can be fit into 25 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 24 from 25 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 6

On to step 3:
When dividing 17 by 6, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42.0
Deduct 12 from 17 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 6

On to step 4:
If we divide 54 by 6, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 429.0
If we subtract 54 from 54, we get 0.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 6

Moving on to step 5:
The number 6 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4290.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 57 / 6

Advancing to step 6:
57 divided by 6 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 42909.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 54 from 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
30 divided by 6 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42909.5
Subtract 30 from 30 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 6, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42909.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
0 divided by 6 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42909.5
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 42909.5, and the remainder is 0.0.
