We divide 638591 by 46
The aim is to understand the frequency of 46 in 638591.

Step 1:
If we divide 6 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 63 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
46 goes into 63 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 46 from 63 and we're left with 17.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 178 / 46

On to step 3:
46 goes into 178 3 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 138 from 178, we get 40.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 405 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
46 goes into 405 8 times with a remainder of 37.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 138.0
If we take 368 away from 405, we end up with 37.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 379 / 46

Advancing to step 5:
46 goes into 379 8 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1388.0
Deduct 368 from 379 and we're left with 11.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 111 / 46

Going ahead to step 6:
111 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13882.0
Subtract 92 from 111 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
46 goes into 190 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13882.4
Subtract 184 from 190 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
60 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13882.41
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
140 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13882.413
Subtract 138 from 140 to 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.

On to step 10:
The number 46 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13882.413
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13882.41304
Subtracting 184 from 200 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13882.413043
Subtracting 138 from 160 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
46 goes into 220 4 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13882.4130434
Subtract 184 from 220 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
46 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 13882.41304347
Subtracting 322 from 360 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

The final result is 13882.41304347 with a remainder of 3.8e-08.
