Let's divide 248442 by 83
The aim is to understand the frequency of 83 in 248442.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 83 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 83

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 83 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 248 / 83

Let's proceed to step 3:
83 goes into 248 2 times with a remainder of 82.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 166 away from 248, we end up with 82.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 82, then repeat: 824 / 83

Going ahead to step 4:
83 goes into 824 9 times with a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 747 from 824.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 77 and continue: 774 / 83

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 774 by 83, we get 9 with a remainder of 27.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 299.0
If we take 747 away from 774, we end up with 27.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 272 / 83

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 272 by 83, we get 3 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2993.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 249 from 272.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 83 fits into 230 2 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2993.2
Deduct 166 from 230 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 640 by 83, we get 7 with a remainder of 59.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2993.27
If we take 581 away from 640, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
590 divided by 83 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2993.277
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 581 from 590.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2993.277, and the remainder is 0.0009.
