We look at the division of 279159 by 38 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 38 in 279159.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
27 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 27 and we're left with 27.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 279 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 279 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 266 from 279 and we're left with 13.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 131 / 38

Going ahead to step 4:
131 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 17.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 114 from 131.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 175 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
38 can be fit into 175 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 734.0
Subtract 152 from 175 to get 23.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 239 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
38 goes into 239 6 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7346.0
If we subtract 228 from 239, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 110 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7346.2
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 76 from 110.
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 8:
340 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7346.28
If we take 304 away from 340, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 360 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7346.289
If we take 342 away from 360, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 180 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7346.2894
Subtract 152 from 180 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7346.28947
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 266 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
38 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 7346.289473
Subtracting 114 from 140 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
38 can be fit into 260 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7346.2894736
If we take 228 away from 260, we end up 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.

Step 14:
320 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7346.28947368
If we subtract 304 from 320, 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.

After the division, we end up with 7346.28947368 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
