We look at the division of 855298 by 23 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 23 in 855298.

On to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 85 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 69 from 85 and we're left with 16.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 165 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
23 goes into 165 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtract 161 from 165 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 23 fits into 42 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 371.0
Deduct 23 from 42 and we're left with 19.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 199 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
23 can be fit into 199 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3718.0
Deduct 184 from 199 and we're left with 15.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 158 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 158 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 37186.0
Subtracting 138 from 158 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
200 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37186.8
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
160 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37186.86
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
23 goes into 220 9 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37186.869
Deduct 207 from 220 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 130 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 37186.8695
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 115 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 150 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37186.86956
If we subtract 138 from 150, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37186.869565
Subtracting 115 from 120 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 50 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37186.8695652
If we take 46 away from 50, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 23 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37186.86956521
If we subtract 23 from 40, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 37186.86956521, with a leftover of 1.7e-08.
