Let's divide 986746 by 79
The aim is to understand the frequency of 79 in 986746.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 79 from 98 to get 19.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 196 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
196 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 38.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 158 from 196 to get 38.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 387 / 79

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 387 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 71.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 124.0
Subtract 316 from 387 to get 71.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 714 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 714 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1249.0
If we take 711 away from 714, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 36 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
79 goes into 36 0 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12490.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 7:
79 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12490.4
Deduct 316 from 360 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.

On to step 8:
79 goes into 440 5 times with a remainder of 45.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12490.45
Deduct 395 from 440 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
79 goes into 450 5 times with a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12490.455
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 395 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12490.455, and the remainder is 0.0055.
