We look at the division of 698687 by 41 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 41 in 698687.

Going ahead to step 1:
41 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 69 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 41 from 69 to get 28.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 288 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
41 can be fit into 288 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 287 from 288 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 16 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170.0
Deduct 0 from 16 and we're left with 16.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 168 / 41

Going ahead to step 5:
168 divided by 41 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1704.0
Subtracting 164 from 168 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 41

Going ahead to step 6:
47 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17041.0
Deduct 41 from 47 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17041.1
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 41 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 190 by 41, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17041.14
If we subtract 164 from 190, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 260 by 41, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17041.146
If we take 246 away from 260, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
41 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17041.1463
Deduct 123 from 140 and we're left 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.

On to step 11:
170 divided by 41 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17041.14634
Subtracting 164 from 170 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 12:
41 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17041.146341
Subtracting 41 from 60 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
41 goes into 190 4 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17041.1463414
Subtract 164 from 190 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
260 divided by 41 is 6 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17041.14634146
Deduct 246 from 260 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Our division results in 17041.14634146 with a remaining 1.4e-08.
