Let's divide 159938 by 74
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 159938.

Moving on to step 1:
1 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 15 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
The number 74 fits into 159 2 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 148 from 159.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 119 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
119 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 74 from 119.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 453 / 74

Step 5:
The number 74 fits into 453 6 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 216.0
If we subtract 444 from 453, we get 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
74 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2161.0
Subtract 74 from 98 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
240 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2161.3
Subtract 222 from 240 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2161.32
If we subtract 148 from 180, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 74 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2161.324
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 296 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
240 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2161.3243
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 222 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2161.32432
Subtract 148 from 180 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
74 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2161.324324
If we take 296 away from 320, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
240 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2161.3243243
Subtract 222 from 240 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 180 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2161.32432432
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 148 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2161.32432432 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
