We divide 17206879 by 462
The aim is to understand the frequency of 462 in 17206879.

Step 1:
462 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 462

On to step 2:
462 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 172 / 462

Advancing to step 3:
462 can be fit into 172 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 172.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 172 and we're left with 172.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 172 and continue: 1720 / 462

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 1720 by 462, we get 3 with a remainder of 334.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 334 after subtracting 1386 from 1720.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 334, then carry on: 3346 / 462

On to step 5:
When dividing 3346 by 462, we get 7 with a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 37.0
Deduct 3234 from 3346 and we're left with 112.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 112, then repeat: 1128 / 462

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 1128 by 462, we get 2 and a remainder of 204.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 372.0
If we subtract 924 from 1128, we get 204.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 204, then carry on: 2047 / 462

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 462 fits into 2047 4 times, leaving a remainder of 199.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3724.0
The remainder is 199 after subtracting 1848 from 2047.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 199 and continue with: 1999 / 462

On to step 8:
462 can be fit into 1999 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 151.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37244.0
Subtracting 1848 from 1999 leaves us with 151.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1510, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 1510 by 462, we get 3 and a remainder of 124.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 37244.3
The remainder is 124 after subtracting 1386 from 1510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
462 goes into 1240 2 times with a remainder of 316.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37244.32
If we subtract 924 from 1240, we get 316.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
462 can be fit into 3160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 388.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37244.326
Deduct 2772 from 3160 and we're left with 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 3880 by 462, we get 8 with a remainder of 184.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37244.3268
If we subtract 3696 from 3880, we get 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
1840 divided by 462 is 3 with a remainder of 454.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37244.32683
Deduct 1386 from 1840 and we're left with 454.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
4540 divided by 462 is 9 with a remainder of 382.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 37244.326839
Subtracting 4158 from 4540 leaves us with 382.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3820, and continue the process.

Step 15:
If we divide 3820 by 462, we get 8 and a remainder of 124.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37244.3268398
Subtract 3696 from 3820 to get 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
1240 divided by 462 is 2 with a remainder of 316.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37244.32683982
Subtract 924 from 1240 to get 316.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 37244.32683982 with a balance of 3.16e-07.
