996817 divided by 84 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 84 in 996817.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 84, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 99 / 84

Step 2:
99 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 84 from 99.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 156 / 84

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 156 by 84, we get 1 with a remainder of 72.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 84 from 156 and we're left with 72.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 72 and continue with: 728 / 84

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 728 by 84, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtracting 672 from 728 leaves us with 56.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 56 and continue: 561 / 84

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 561 by 84, we get 6 and a remainder of 57.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1186.0
If we subtract 504 from 561, we get 57.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 577 / 84

Advancing to step 6:
84 goes into 577 6 times with a remainder of 73.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11866.0
Deduct 504 from 577 and we're left with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 84 fits into 730 8 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11866.8
If we subtract 672 from 730, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 84 fits into 580 6 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11866.86
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 504 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 760 by 84, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11866.869
If we subtract 756 from 760, we 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 10:
The number 84 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11866.869
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 84 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11866.86904
If we subtract 336 from 400, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 640 by 84, we get 7 and a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11866.869047
If we subtract 588 from 640, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
84 goes into 520 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11866.8690476
If we subtract 504 from 520, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
84 goes into 160 1 times with a remainder of 76.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11866.86904761
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 84 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

The final result is 11866.86904761 with a remainder of 7.6e-08.
