We're dividing 496236 by 1 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 1 in 496236.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 1, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 4 from 4 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 1

On to step 2:
1 goes into 9 9 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 1

Step 3:
6 divided by 1 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 496.0
If we take 6 away from 6, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 1

Advancing to step 4:
1 can be fit into 2 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4962.0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 3 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
1 goes into 3 3 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49623.0
Deduct 3 from 3 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 1

On to step 6:
6 divided by 1 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 496236.0
Deduct 6 from 6 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
1 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 496236.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 1, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 496236.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 496236.0 with a remaining 0.0.
