We look at the division of 3231383 by 842 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 842 in 3231383.

Moving on to step 1:
3 divided by 842 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 32 / 842

Step 2:
The number 842 fits into 32 0 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 32 to get 32.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 323 / 842

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 323 by 842, we get 0 and a remainder of 323.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 323, we get 323.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 323, then repeat: 3231 / 842

Moving on to step 4:
842 can be fit into 3231 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 705.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 2526 from 3231 to get 705.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 705, then carry on: 7053 / 842

Let's proceed to step 5:
7053 divided by 842 is 8 with a remainder of 317.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38.0
Deduct 6736 from 7053 and we're left with 317.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 317 and repeat the process: 3178 / 842

On to step 6:
When dividing 3178 by 842, we get 3 with a remainder of 652.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 383.0
If we subtract 2526 from 3178, we get 652.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 652, then carry on: 6523 / 842

On to step 7:
842 can be fit into 6523 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 629.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3837.0
If we subtract 5894 from 6523, we get 629.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6290, and continue the process.

Step 8:
6290 divided by 842 is 7 with a remainder of 396.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3837.7
If we subtract 5894 from 6290, we get 396.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3960, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
842 can be fit into 3960 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 592.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3837.74
Subtracting 3368 from 3960 leaves us with 592.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5920, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 842 fits into 5920 7 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3837.747
If we take 5894 away from 5920, we end up with 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 11:
The number 842 fits into 260 0 times, leaving a remainder of 260.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3837.747
If we take 0 away from 260, we end up with 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2600, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 842 fits into 2600 3 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3837.74703
Subtract 2526 from 2600 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 740 by 842, we get 0 and a remainder of 740.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3837.74703
If we subtract 0 from 740, we get 740.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7400, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
842 goes into 7400 8 times with a remainder of 664.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3837.7470308
Subtract 6736 from 7400 to get 664.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 6640 by 842, we get 7 and a remainder of 746.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3837.74703087
The remainder is 746 after subtracting 5894 from 6640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7460, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3837.74703087 and a remainder of 7.46e-07.
