14857 divided by 4 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 4 in 14857.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 4

On to step 2:
4 goes into 14 3 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 12 from 14, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 4

Let's proceed to step 3:
4 goes into 28 7 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we take 28 away from 28, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 4

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 4 fits into 5 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 371.0
Subtract 4 from 5 to get 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 4

Step 5:
4 goes into 17 4 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3714.0
Deduct 16 from 17 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
The number 4 fits into 10 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3714.2
If we take 8 away from 10, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 7:
20 divided by 4 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3714.25
If we subtract 20 from 20, 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 4, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3714.25
If we subtract 0 from 0, 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 4 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3714.25
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 3714.25, and the remainder is 0.0.
