40242 ÷ 48 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 40242.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 48

Step 2:
48 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 402 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
48 can be fit into 402 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 384 away from 402, we end up with 18.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 184 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
48 goes into 184 3 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 83.0
Deduct 144 from 184 and we're left with 40.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 402 / 48

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 402 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 838.0
If we take 384 away from 402, we end up 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 6:
48 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 838.3
Subtracting 144 from 180 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
360 divided by 48 is 7 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 838.37
Subtract 336 from 360 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 240 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 838.375
Subtract 240 from 240 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 838.375
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.

Step 10:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 838.375
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.

The final outcome is 838.375, with a leftover of 0.0.
