We divide 17719208 by 142
The aim is to understand the frequency of 142 in 17719208.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 142 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 142

Step 2:
142 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 177 / 142

Moving on to step 3:
142 goes into 177 1 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 142 from 177, we get 35.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 351 / 142

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 351 by 142, we get 2 and a remainder of 67.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 284 from 351 to get 67.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 67, then repeat: 679 / 142

On to step 5:
If we divide 679 by 142, we get 4 and a remainder of 111.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 124.0
The remainder is 111 after subtracting 568 from 679.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 111 and continue with: 1112 / 142

Advancing to step 6:
142 goes into 1112 7 times with a remainder of 118.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1247.0
Deduct 994 from 1112 and we're left with 118.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 118 and repeat the process: 1180 / 142

Let's proceed to step 7:
142 goes into 1180 8 times with a remainder of 44.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12478.0
Subtracting 1136 from 1180 leaves us with 44.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 448 / 142

Going ahead to step 8:
448 divided by 142 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124783.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 426 from 448.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 9:
220 divided by 142 is 1 with a remainder of 78.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 124783.1
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 142 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 780 by 142, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 124783.15
If we take 710 away from 780, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 700 by 142, we get 4 with a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 124783.154
If we subtract 568 from 700, we get 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Step 12:
1320 divided by 142 is 9 with a remainder of 42.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 124783.1549
Subtract 1278 from 1320 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 142 fits into 420 2 times, leaving a remainder of 136.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 124783.15492
Subtract 284 from 420 to get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
142 can be fit into 1360 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 82.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 124783.154929
Subtract 1278 from 1360 to get 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
820 divided by 142 is 5 with a remainder of 110.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 124783.1549295
Subtract 710 from 820 to get 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
The number 142 fits into 1100 7 times, leaving a remainder of 106.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 124783.15492957
If we take 994 away from 1100, we end up with 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

The final result is 124783.15492957 with a remainder of 1.06e-07.
