We look at the division of 1700 by 12 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 12 in 1700.

Moving on to step 1:
1 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 12

On to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 12, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 12 from 17, we get 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 12

On to step 3:
12 goes into 50 4 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 48 from 50.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 12

Step 4:
12 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 141.0
If we subtract 12 from 20, 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.

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 80 by 12, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 141.6
If we subtract 72 from 80, 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.

Moving on to step 6:
80 divided by 12 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 141.66
Deduct 72 from 80 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 141.66 with a remainder of 0.008.
