738470 divided by 3 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 3 in 738470.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 3 fits into 7 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 6 from 7, we get 1.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 13 / 3

Step 2:
If we divide 13 by 3, we get 4 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 12 from 13 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 3

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 18 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 246.0
Subtracting 18 from 18 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 3

Advancing to step 4:
3 can be fit into 4 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2461.0
Subtracting 3 from 4 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 3

On to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 17 5 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 24615.0
If we take 15 away from 17, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 20 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 246156.0
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 246156.6
Subtracting 18 from 20 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 3 fits into 20 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 246156.66
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 246156.66 and a remainder of 0.002.
