We divide 988981 by 20
The aim is to understand the frequency of 20 in 988981.

On to step 1:
20 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 20

Step 2:
If we divide 98 by 20, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 80 away from 98, we end up with 18.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 188 / 20

On to step 3:
20 goes into 188 9 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we take 180 away from 188, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 89 / 20

Let's proceed to step 4:
89 divided by 20 is 4 with a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 494.0
Subtract 80 from 89 to get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 20

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 98 by 20, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4944.0
Subtracting 80 from 98 leaves us with 18.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 181 / 20

Step 6:
If we divide 181 by 20, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49449.0
Subtract 180 from 181 to get 1.
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:
The number 20 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49449.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 100 by 20, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49449.05
Subtract 100 from 100 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
20 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49449.05
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 20 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49449.05
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 49449.05 with a balance of 0.0.
