We're dividing 124017 by 1 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 1 in 124017.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 1, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 1 from 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 1

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 2 by 1, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 1

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 4 by 1, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 124.0
If we take 4 away from 4, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 0 / 1

Step 4:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1240.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 1

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 1 by 1, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12401.0
If we subtract 1 from 1, we get 0.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 7 / 1

Advancing to step 6:
1 can be fit into 7 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124017.0
If we subtract 7 from 7, we 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 1, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 124017.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
0 divided by 1 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 124017.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 124017.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
