We divide 531884 by 46
The aim is to understand the frequency of 46 in 531884.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 53 / 46

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 46 fits into 53 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 46 from 53, we get 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 46

Step 3:
46 goes into 71 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 46 from 71 to get 25.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 258 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
46 goes into 258 5 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 115.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 230 from 258.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 288 / 46

On to step 5:
288 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1156.0
Subtracting 276 from 288 leaves us with 12.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 124 / 46

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 124 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11562.0
Deduct 92 from 124 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 320 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 44.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11562.6
If we take 276 away from 320, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 440 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 26.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11562.69
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 414 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 46 fits into 260 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11562.695
If we subtract 230 from 260, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
300 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11562.6956
Deduct 276 from 300 and we're left with 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:
46 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11562.69565
Subtract 230 from 240 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11562.695652
Subtract 92 from 100 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 80 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11562.6956521
If we subtract 46 from 80, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 340 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11562.69565217
Subtract 322 from 340 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11562.69565217 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
