We divide 167983 by 56
The aim is to understand the frequency of 56 in 167983.

On to step 1:
56 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
56 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 16, we get 16.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 167 / 56

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 167 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 55.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 112 from 167 and we're left with 55.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 559 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 goes into 559 9 times with a remainder of 55.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we take 504 away from 559, we end up with 55.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 558 / 56

Step 5:
56 can be fit into 558 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 299.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 504 from 558.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 543 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 543 by 56, we get 9 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2999.0
Deduct 504 from 543 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 390 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 54.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2999.6
Deduct 336 from 390 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
56 can be fit into 540 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2999.69
If we subtract 504 from 540, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 56, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2999.696
If we take 336 away from 360, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2999.6964
Subtract 224 from 240 to 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.

Moving on to step 11:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2999.69642
Deduct 112 from 160 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2999.696428
If we take 448 away from 480, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2999.6964285
Subtract 280 from 320 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2999.69642857
If we subtract 392 from 400, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2999.69642857 with a remaining 8e-09.
