We divide 146944 by 42
The aim is to understand the frequency of 42 in 146944.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 42

On to step 2:
When dividing 14 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 146 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 goes into 146 3 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 126 from 146 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 209 / 42

Step 4:
42 can be fit into 209 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtract 168 from 209 to get 41.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 414 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 414 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 349.0
If we take 378 away from 414, we end up with 36.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 364 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 goes into 364 8 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3498.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 336 from 364.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 7:
280 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3498.6
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 252 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3498.66
Subtracting 252 from 280 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final result is 3498.66 with a remainder of 0.028.
