We divide 587994 by 16
The aim is to understand the frequency of 16 in 587994.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 16

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 58 by 16, we get 3 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 48 from 58 leaves us with 10.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 107 / 16

Step 3:
107 divided by 16 is 6 with a remainder of 11.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 96 from 107.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 119 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 119 by 16, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 367.0
Deduct 112 from 119 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 16

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 79 by 16, we get 4 and a remainder of 15.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3674.0
If we subtract 64 from 79, we get 15.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 154 / 16

On to step 6:
16 goes into 154 9 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36749.0
Subtracting 144 from 154 leaves us 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 7:
16 can be fit into 100 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36749.6
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 96 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
16 can be fit into 40 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36749.62
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 32 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
16 can be fit into 80 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 36749.625
If we take 80 away from 80, 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 36749.625
If we take 0 away from 0, 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 36749.625
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.

The final outcome is 36749.625, with a leftover of 0.0.
