Let's divide 494371 by 87
The aim is to understand the frequency of 87 in 494371.

Step 1:
87 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 49 0 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 49, we get 49.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 494 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 87 fits into 494 5 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 435 from 494, we get 59.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 59 and repeat the process: 593 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
593 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 71.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 56.0
If we take 522 away from 593, we end up with 71.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 717 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 717 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 568.0
If we subtract 696 from 717, we get 21.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 211 / 87

Step 6:
87 can be fit into 211 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5682.0
If we subtract 174 from 211, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 370 4 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5682.4
Deduct 348 from 370 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 220 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 46.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5682.42
Deduct 174 from 220 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
87 can be fit into 460 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5682.425
If we subtract 435 from 460, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5682.4252
Subtracting 174 from 250 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 87 fits into 760 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5682.42528
Deduct 696 from 760 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 640 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5682.425287
Subtracting 609 from 640 leaves us with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
87 can be fit into 310 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5682.4252873
Subtracting 261 from 310 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
87 can be fit into 490 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5682.42528735
Subtracting 435 from 490 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5682.42528735, with a leftover of 5.5e-08.
