We look at the division of 40779544 by 259 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 259 in 40779544.

Step 1:
4 divided by 259 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 259

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 259, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 407 / 259

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 407 by 259, we get 1 and a remainder of 148.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 259 from 407 and we're left with 148.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 148, then repeat: 1487 / 259

Let's proceed to step 4:
259 goes into 1487 5 times with a remainder of 192.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 1295 from 1487 and we're left with 192.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 192 and repeat the process: 1929 / 259

Advancing to step 5:
1929 divided by 259 is 7 with a remainder of 116.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 157.0
Subtracting 1813 from 1929 leaves us with 116.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 116, then repeat: 1165 / 259

Advancing to step 6:
259 can be fit into 1165 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 129.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1574.0
Subtracting 1036 from 1165 leaves us with 129.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 129 and continue: 1294 / 259

Moving on to step 7:
259 goes into 1294 4 times with a remainder of 258.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15744.0
Subtract 1036 from 1294 to get 258.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 258, then repeat: 2584 / 259

On to step 8:
When dividing 2584 by 259, we get 9 with a remainder of 253.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 157449.0
Subtract 2331 from 2584 to get 253.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 2530 by 259, we get 9 and a remainder of 199.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 157449.9
If we take 2331 away from 2530, we end up with 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1990, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 259 fits into 1990 7 times, leaving a remainder of 177.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 157449.97
Subtracting 1813 from 1990 leaves us with 177.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1770, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 1770 by 259, we get 6 with a remainder of 216.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 157449.976
If we take 1554 away from 1770, we end up with 216.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 259 fits into 2160 8 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157449.9768
Deduct 2072 from 2160 and we're left with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Step 13:
880 divided by 259 is 3 with a remainder of 103.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 157449.97683
If we take 777 away from 880, we end up with 103.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1030, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 259 fits into 1030 3 times, leaving a remainder of 253.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157449.976833
Deduct 777 from 1030 and we're left with 253.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2530, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 157449.976833 with a balance of 2.53e-05.
