We look at the division of 6242738 by 838 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 838 in 6242738.

Going ahead to step 1:
838 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 838

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 838 fits into 62 0 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 62, we end up with 62.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 62 and continue: 624 / 838

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 624 by 838, we get 0 with a remainder of 624.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 624 and we're left with 624.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 624 and continue: 6242 / 838

Advancing to step 4:
The number 838 fits into 6242 7 times, leaving a remainder of 376.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 5866 away from 6242, we end up with 376.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 376, then carry on: 3767 / 838

Step 5:
3767 divided by 838 is 4 with a remainder of 415.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74.0
The remainder is 415 after subtracting 3352 from 3767.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 415 and repeat the process: 4153 / 838

Advancing to step 6:
4153 divided by 838 is 4 with a remainder of 801.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 744.0
The remainder is 801 after subtracting 3352 from 4153.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 801, then carry on: 8018 / 838

On to step 7:
838 can be fit into 8018 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 476.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7449.0
Subtracting 7542 from 8018 leaves us with 476.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4760, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
838 can be fit into 4760 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 570.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7449.5
Subtracting 4190 from 4760 leaves us with 570.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 5700 by 838, we get 6 and a remainder of 672.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7449.56
Subtracting 5028 from 5700 leaves us with 672.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6720, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 6720 by 838, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7449.568
Deduct 6704 from 6720 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 160 by 838, we get 0 with a remainder of 160.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7449.568
If we take 0 away from 160, we end up with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
838 can be fit into 1600 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 762.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7449.56801
Deduct 838 from 1600 and we're left with 762.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
838 goes into 7620 9 times with a remainder of 78.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7449.568019
Subtracting 7542 from 7620 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Step 14:
838 goes into 780 0 times with a remainder of 780.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7449.568019
Subtract 0 from 780 to get 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7800, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
If we divide 7800 by 838, we get 9 and a remainder of 258.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7449.56801909
If we take 7542 away from 7800, we end up with 258.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2580, and continue the process.

Our division results in 7449.56801909 with a remaining 2.58e-07.
