279701 ÷ 16 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 16 in 279701.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 16

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 16, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 16 from 27 to get 11.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 119 / 16

Let's proceed to step 3:
16 can be fit into 119 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 112 from 119, we get 7.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 77 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
16 goes into 77 4 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 174.0
If we subtract 64 from 77, we get 13.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 130 / 16

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 16 fits into 130 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1748.0
If we take 128 away from 130, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 16

Step 6:
21 divided by 16 is 1 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17481.0
If we take 16 away from 21, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
50 divided by 16 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17481.3
If we take 48 away from 50, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 8:
16 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17481.31
If we subtract 16 from 20, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
40 divided by 16 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17481.312
If we take 32 away from 40, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 80 by 16, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17481.3125
Deduct 80 from 80 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17481.3125
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17481.3125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17481.3125 with a balance of 0.0.
