Let's divide 860742 by 12
The aim is to understand the frequency of 12 in 860742.

Let's proceed to step 1:
8 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 12

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 86 by 12, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 84 from 86 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 12

Step 3:
If we divide 20 by 12, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 71.0
Subtracting 12 from 20 leaves us with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 12

Advancing to step 4:
The number 12 fits into 87 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 717.0
Deduct 84 from 87 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 12

On to step 5:
12 can be fit into 34 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7172.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 24 from 34.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 102 / 12

Step 6:
The number 12 fits into 102 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 71728.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 96 from 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
12 can be fit into 60 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 71728.5
Deduct 60 from 60 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.

On to step 8:
12 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 71728.5
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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 12 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 71728.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 71728.5 with a balance of 0.0.
