We divide 2169904 by 996
The aim is to understand the frequency of 996 in 2169904.

On to step 1:
The number 996 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 996

Moving on to step 2:
21 divided by 996 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 216 / 996

Moving on to step 3:
996 goes into 216 0 times with a remainder of 216.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 216 after subtracting 0 from 216.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 216 and repeat the process: 2169 / 996

Moving on to step 4:
996 goes into 2169 2 times with a remainder of 177.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 1992 from 2169 to get 177.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 177 and continue: 1779 / 996

On to step 5:
If we divide 1779 by 996, we get 1 and a remainder of 783.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 996 from 1779 leaves us with 783.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 783 and repeat the process: 7830 / 996

Step 6:
When dividing 7830 by 996, we get 7 with a remainder of 858.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 217.0
Deduct 6972 from 7830 and we're left with 858.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 858 and continue with: 8584 / 996

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 8584 by 996, we get 8 and a remainder of 616.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2178.0
The remainder is 616 after subtracting 7968 from 8584.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6160, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
996 goes into 6160 6 times with a remainder of 184.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2178.6
Subtracting 5976 from 6160 leaves us with 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
1840 divided by 996 is 1 with a remainder of 844.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2178.61
Deduct 996 from 1840 and we're left with 844.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8440, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 996 fits into 8440 8 times, leaving a remainder of 472.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2178.618
The remainder is 472 after subtracting 7968 from 8440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 4720 by 996, we get 4 and a remainder of 736.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2178.6184
Subtracting 3984 from 4720 leaves us with 736.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7360, and continue the process.

Step 12:
996 can be fit into 7360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 388.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2178.61847
If we subtract 6972 from 7360, we get 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Step 13:
996 can be fit into 3880 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 892.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2178.618473
The remainder is 892 after subtracting 2988 from 3880.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8920, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 8920 by 996, we get 8 and a remainder of 952.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2178.6184738
Subtracting 7968 from 8920 leaves us with 952.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9520, and continue the process.

Step 15:
9520 divided by 996 is 9 with a remainder of 556.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2178.61847389
Deduct 8964 from 9520 and we're left with 556.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5560, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2178.61847389, and the remainder is 5.56e-07.
