Let's divide 494299 by 6
The aim is to understand the frequency of 6 in 494299.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 6, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 6

Advancing to step 2:
The number 6 fits into 49 8 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 48 from 49.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 6

Moving on to step 3:
6 can be fit into 14 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 82.0
Subtract 12 from 14 to get 2.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 6

On to step 4:
If we divide 22 by 6, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 823.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 18 from 22.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 6

On to step 5:
6 goes into 49 8 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8238.0
Subtracting 48 from 49 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 19 / 6

On to step 6:
The number 6 fits into 19 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 82383.0
Deduct 18 from 19 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
6 goes into 10 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 82383.1
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 6 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
6 goes into 40 6 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 82383.16
Subtract 36 from 40 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
6 goes into 40 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 82383.166
Deduct 36 from 40 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.

The final outcome is 82383.166, with a leftover of 0.0004.
