980047 divided by 3 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 3 in 980047.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 3 fits into 9 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 9 from 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 3

Step 2:
3 can be fit into 8 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 6 from 8, we get 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 3

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 20 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 326.0
Deduct 18 from 20 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 20 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 20 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3266.0
If we take 18 away from 20, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 3

On to step 5:
3 can be fit into 24 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32668.0
Subtracting 24 from 24 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 3

Moving on to step 6:
3 goes into 7 2 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 326682.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 6 from 7.
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 7:
If we divide 10 by 3, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 326682.3
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 9 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
3 can be fit into 10 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 326682.33
Deduct 9 from 10 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.

The final result is 326682.33 with a remainder of 0.001.
