Let's divide 459142 by 74
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 459142.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
74 goes into 45 0 times with a remainder of 45.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 45 leaves us with 45.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 459 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 459 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 444 from 459 and we're left with 15.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 151 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
74 goes into 151 2 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 62.0
Deduct 148 from 151 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
34 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 34.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 620.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 0 from 34.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 342 / 74

Step 6:
The number 74 fits into 342 4 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6204.0
Deduct 296 from 342 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 460 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6204.6
Deduct 444 from 460 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 160 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6204.62
Subtract 148 from 160 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
120 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6204.621
Subtracting 74 from 120 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 460 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6204.6216
Deduct 444 from 460 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6204.62162
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 148 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6204.621621
Deduct 74 from 120 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 460 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6204.6216216
Subtracting 444 from 460 leaves us with 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 14:
The number 74 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6204.62162162
Deduct 148 from 160 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6204.62162162 and a remainder of 1.2e-08.
