Let's divide 371517 by 72
The aim is to understand the frequency of 72 in 371517.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
72 goes into 37 0 times with a remainder of 37.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 0 from 37.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 371 / 72

On to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 371 5 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 360 away from 371, we end up with 11.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 115 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
115 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 72 from 115.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 43 and repeat the process: 431 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 431 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 71.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 515.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 360 from 431.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 717 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 717 9 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5159.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 648 from 717.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
72 goes into 690 9 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5159.9
Subtracting 648 from 690 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 420 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5159.95
Subtract 360 from 420 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 9:
600 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5159.958
Subtract 576 from 600 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
72 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5159.9583
If we subtract 216 from 240, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 11:
72 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5159.95833
Subtract 216 from 240 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5159.95833 with a balance of 2.4e-05.
