We divide 401978 by 61
The aim is to understand the frequency of 61 in 401978.

Step 1:
The number 61 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 61

On to step 2:
61 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 401 / 61

Advancing to step 3:
The number 61 fits into 401 6 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 366 from 401 to get 35.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 359 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
61 can be fit into 359 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 65.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 305 from 359.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 54 and repeat the process: 547 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
61 goes into 547 8 times with a remainder of 59.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 658.0
If we subtract 488 from 547, we get 59.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 59 and repeat the process: 598 / 61

Step 6:
61 can be fit into 598 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6589.0
Subtracting 549 from 598 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
61 goes into 490 8 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6589.8
If we take 488 away from 490, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 61, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6589.8
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 9:
61 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6589.803
If we take 183 away from 200, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
61 can be fit into 170 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6589.8032
If we take 122 away from 170, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
480 divided by 61 is 7 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6589.80327
If we subtract 427 from 480, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 12:
61 can be fit into 530 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6589.803278
Subtracting 488 from 530 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
420 divided by 61 is 6 with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6589.8032786
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 366 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 61 fits into 540 8 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6589.80327868
Deduct 488 from 540 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6589.80327868 with a remaining 5.2e-08.
