8871978 divided by 583 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 583 in 8871978.

Moving on to step 1:
583 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 583

Advancing to step 2:
The number 583 fits into 88 0 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 88 after subtracting 0 from 88.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 88 and repeat the process: 887 / 583

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 887 by 583, we get 1 and a remainder of 304.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 583 from 887 to get 304.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 304 and continue with: 3041 / 583

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 3041 by 583, we get 5 and a remainder of 126.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 2915 away from 3041, we end up with 126.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 126 and continue: 1269 / 583

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 583 fits into 1269 2 times, leaving a remainder of 103.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 152.0
Subtract 1166 from 1269 to get 103.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 103 and repeat the process: 1037 / 583

Step 6:
583 can be fit into 1037 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 454.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1521.0
If we subtract 583 from 1037, we get 454.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 454, then carry on: 4548 / 583

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 4548 by 583, we get 7 and a remainder of 467.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15217.0
If we take 4081 away from 4548, we end up with 467.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
583 can be fit into 4670 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15217.8
Subtracting 4664 from 4670 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 60 by 583, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15217.8
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
583 goes into 600 1 times with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 15217.801
Subtracting 583 from 600 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
170 divided by 583 is 0 with a remainder of 170.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15217.801
Subtracting 0 from 170 leaves us with 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
583 can be fit into 1700 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 534.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15217.80102
If we take 1166 away from 1700, we end up with 534.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
583 can be fit into 5340 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 93.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15217.801029
If we take 5247 away from 5340, we end up with 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
583 can be fit into 930 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 347.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15217.8010291
The remainder is 347 after subtracting 583 from 930.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3470, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 3470 by 583, we get 5 with a remainder of 555.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15217.80102915
The remainder is 555 after subtracting 2915 from 3470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5550, and continue the process.

The final result is 15217.80102915 with a remainder of 5.55e-07.
