496850 divided by 16 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 16 in 496850.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 16

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 49 by 16, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 48 from 49.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 16

Let's proceed to step 3:
16 can be fit into 16 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
Deduct 16 from 16 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 16

Step 4:
The number 16 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 310.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 16

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 16 fits into 85 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3105.0
If we take 80 away from 85, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 16

On to step 6:
16 can be fit into 50 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31053.0
If we take 48 away from 50, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 20 by 16, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31053.1
If we take 16 away from 20, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
40 divided by 16 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 31053.12
Subtracting 32 from 40 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 16, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 31053.125
Subtracting 80 from 80 leaves us 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 10:
16 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 31053.125
Deduct 0 from 0 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.

Step 11:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31053.125
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.

After the division, we end up with 31053.125 and a remainder of 0.0.
