Let's divide 48868 by 4
The aim is to understand the frequency of 4 in 48868.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 4, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 4 from 4 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 4

Going ahead to step 2:
8 divided by 4 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 8 away from 8, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 4

On to step 3:
When dividing 8 by 4, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 122.0
If we subtract 8 from 8, we get 0.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 4

Going ahead to step 4:
4 goes into 6 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1221.0
Subtract 4 from 6 to get 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 4

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 28 by 4, we get 7 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12217.0
Deduct 28 from 28 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.

Step 6:
0 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12217.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
0 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12217.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12217.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
