We divide 283697 by 23
The aim is to understand the frequency of 23 in 283697.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 23, we get 0 and 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.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 23 from 28 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 53 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 53 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 7.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 46 from 53, we get 7.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 76 / 23

Step 4:
23 can be fit into 76 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123.0
If we subtract 69 from 76, we get 7.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 79 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
23 goes into 79 3 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1233.0
If we take 69 away from 79, we end up with 10.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 107 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
23 goes into 107 4 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12334.0
Subtracting 92 from 107 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12334.6
Subtracting 138 from 150 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 120 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12334.65
Subtract 115 from 120 to get 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 9:
If we divide 50 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12334.652
Subtract 46 from 50 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 40 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12334.6521
Subtracting 23 from 40 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12334.65217
Subtracting 161 from 170 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12334.652173
Deduct 69 from 90 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 210 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12334.6521739
Subtract 207 from 210 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 30 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12334.65217391
If we subtract 23 from 30, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12334.65217391 with a remaining 7e-09.
