975471 divided by 3 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 3 in 975471.

On to step 1:
The number 3 fits into 9 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 7 by 3, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
Deduct 6 from 7 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 3

Moving on to step 3:
15 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 325.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 15 from 15.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 3 fits into 4 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3251.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 3 from 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 17 by 3, we get 5 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32515.0
If we take 15 away from 17, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 21 / 3

Moving on to step 6:
21 divided by 3 is 7 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 325157.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 21 from 21.
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:
The number 3 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 325157.0
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 3 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 325157.0
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.

Our division results in 325157.0 with a remaining 0.0.
