We look at the division of 186238 by 1 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 1 in 186238.

Moving on to step 1:
1 can be fit into 1 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 1 from 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 1

Going ahead to step 2:
8 divided by 1 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 8 from 8 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 1

Moving on to step 3:
The number 1 fits into 6 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 186.0
If we take 6 away from 6, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 1

Going ahead to step 4:
1 goes into 2 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1862.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 3 / 1

Step 5:
1 goes into 3 3 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18623.0
Deduct 3 from 3 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 1

Advancing to step 6:
The number 1 fits into 8 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 186238.0
Subtracting 8 from 8 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 186238.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 8:
0 divided by 1 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 186238.0
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.

The quotient of the division is 186238.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
