Let's divide 262096 by 23
The aim is to understand the frequency of 23 in 262096.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
23 goes into 26 1 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 23 from 26.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 32 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 32 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 23 from 32.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 90 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 113.0
Subtract 69 from 90 to get 21.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 219 / 23

Step 5:
If we divide 219 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1139.0
If we take 207 away from 219, we end up with 12.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 126 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 126 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11395.0
Subtract 115 from 126 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 110 4 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11395.4
Subtracting 92 from 110 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 180 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11395.47
If we take 161 away from 180, we end up 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.

Step 9:
190 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11395.478
Subtracting 184 from 190 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.

Moving on to step 10:
23 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11395.4782
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 23 fits into 140 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11395.47826
Deduct 138 from 140 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 12:
23 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11395.47826
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11395.4782608
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
160 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11395.47826086
Subtract 138 from 160 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11395.47826086, and the remainder is 2.2e-08.
