We're dividing 872240 by 6 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 6 in 872240.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 can be fit into 8 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 6 from 8 to get 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 6

Let's proceed to step 2:
6 goes into 27 4 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 24 from 27, we get 3.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 32 / 6

On to step 3:
6 can be fit into 32 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145.0
Subtract 30 from 32 to get 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 6

Step 4:
6 goes into 22 3 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1453.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 18 from 22.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 6

Step 5:
44 divided by 6 is 7 with a remainder of 2.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14537.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 42 from 44.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 6

Step 6:
When dividing 20 by 6, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145373.0
If we subtract 18 from 20, we 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
20 divided by 6 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145373.3
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.

Moving on to step 8:
20 divided by 6 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 145373.33
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.

The final result is 145373.33 with a remainder of 0.002.
