Let's divide 186879 by 1
The aim is to understand the frequency of 1 in 186879.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 1, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 1 from 1 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 1

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 1 fits into 8 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 8 from 8 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 6 / 1

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 6 by 1, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 186.0
Subtracting 6 from 6 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 1

Advancing to step 4:
8 divided by 1 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1868.0
If we subtract 8 from 8, we get 0.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 7 / 1

On to step 5:
1 goes into 7 7 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18687.0
Subtracting 7 from 7 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 1

On to step 6:
1 can be fit into 9 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 186879.0
If we take 9 away from 9, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 186879.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 186879.0
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.

Our division results in 186879.0 with a remaining 0.0.
