We're dividing 118911 by 42 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 42 in 118911.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 42

On to step 2:
42 goes into 11 0 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 118 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 118 2 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 84 from 118.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 349 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
42 can be fit into 349 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 336 from 349, we get 13.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 131 / 42

On to step 5:
If we divide 131 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 283.0
Deduct 126 from 131 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 51 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 51 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2831.0
Subtracting 42 from 51 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
90 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2831.2
Deduct 84 from 90 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2831.21
Subtracting 42 from 60 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.

Step 9:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2831.214
Subtracting 168 from 180 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2831.2142
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 84 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2831.21428
If we subtract 336 from 360, we 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.

Advancing to step 12:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2831.214285
If we subtract 210 from 240, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 42 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2831.2142857
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2831.21428571
Subtracting 42 from 60 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.

After the division, we end up with 2831.21428571 and a remainder of 1.8e-08.
