Let's divide 218846 by 55
The aim is to understand the frequency of 55 in 218846.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
55 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 21 to get 21.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 218 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
55 goes into 218 3 times with a remainder of 53.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 165 from 218 to get 53.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 538 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
55 can be fit into 538 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Deduct 495 from 538 and we're left with 43.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 434 / 55

On to step 5:
434 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 397.0
Subtracting 385 from 434 leaves us with 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 55

Step 6:
If we divide 496 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3979.0
If we subtract 495 from 496, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
55 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3979.0
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
55 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3979.01
Subtract 55 from 100 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3979.018
If we take 440 away from 450, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
55 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3979.0181
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 55 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
450 divided by 55 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3979.01818
Deduct 440 from 450 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 12:
55 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3979.018181
Subtract 55 from 100 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 450 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3979.0181818
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 440 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3979.01818181
Subtracting 55 from 100 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3979.01818181, with a leftover of 4.5e-08.
