We look at the division of 240968 by 17 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 17 in 240968.

Advancing to step 1:
17 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 17

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 17, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 17 from 24 to get 7.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 70 / 17

Moving on to step 3:
70 divided by 17 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 68 from 70.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 17

Moving on to step 4:
29 divided by 17 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 141.0
If we subtract 17 from 29, we get 12.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 126 / 17

On to step 5:
If we divide 126 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 7.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1417.0
Subtract 119 from 126 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 17

Advancing to step 6:
78 divided by 17 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14174.0
If we take 68 away from 78, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
17 goes into 100 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14174.5
Subtract 85 from 100 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14174.58
Deduct 136 from 150 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
140 divided by 17 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14174.588
Deduct 136 from 140 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14174.588 and a remainder of 0.0004.
