We're dividing 74532462 by 972 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 972 in 74532462.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 972, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 972

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 972, we get 0 with a remainder of 74.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 74 and we're left with 74.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 74, then carry on: 745 / 972

Step 3:
972 goes into 745 0 times with a remainder of 745.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 745, we end up with 745.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 745, then repeat: 7453 / 972

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 972 fits into 7453 7 times, leaving a remainder of 649.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 6804 from 7453 and we're left with 649.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 649, then carry on: 6492 / 972

Step 5:
When dividing 6492 by 972, we get 6 with a remainder of 660.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 76.0
Subtracting 5832 from 6492 leaves us with 660.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 660 and continue with: 6604 / 972

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 972 fits into 6604 6 times, leaving a remainder of 772.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 766.0
Deduct 5832 from 6604 and we're left with 772.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 772 and continue: 7726 / 972

Going ahead to step 7:
972 goes into 7726 7 times with a remainder of 922.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7667.0
If we take 6804 away from 7726, we end up with 922.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 922 and repeat the process: 9222 / 972

Step 8:
9222 divided by 972 is 9 with a remainder of 474.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 76679.0
The remainder is 474 after subtracting 8748 from 9222.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4740, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
972 can be fit into 4740 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 852.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76679.4
Subtracting 3888 from 4740 leaves us with 852.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
972 goes into 8520 8 times with a remainder of 744.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 76679.48
Subtract 7776 from 8520 to get 744.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
972 can be fit into 7440 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 636.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76679.487
Subtract 6804 from 7440 to get 636.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 6360 by 972, we get 6 and a remainder of 528.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 76679.4876
Deduct 5832 from 6360 and we're left with 528.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 972 fits into 5280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 420.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 76679.48765
The remainder is 420 after subtracting 4860 from 5280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4200, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
972 goes into 4200 4 times with a remainder of 312.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76679.487654
The remainder is 312 after subtracting 3888 from 4200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
972 goes into 3120 3 times with a remainder of 204.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 76679.4876543
Subtract 2916 from 3120 to get 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 2040 by 972, we get 2 and a remainder of 96.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 76679.48765432
If we subtract 1944 from 2040, we get 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 76679.48765432 with a balance of 9.6e-08.
