We divide 988490 by 52
The aim is to understand the frequency of 52 in 988490.

Advancing to step 1:
9 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
52 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 52 from 98 and we're left with 46.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 468 / 52

Let's proceed to step 3:
52 goes into 468 9 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 468 from 468, we get 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 52

On to step 4:
When dividing 4 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 190.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 52

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 49 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1900.0
Subtracting 0 from 49 leaves us with 49.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 490 / 52

Step 6:
52 can be fit into 490 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19009.0
If we subtract 468 from 490, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 52 fits into 220 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 19009.4
If we subtract 208 from 220, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 52, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19009.42
If we subtract 104 from 120, 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.

Moving on to step 9:
52 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19009.423
If we subtract 156 from 160, 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 52 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19009.423
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
52 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19009.42307
Deduct 364 from 400 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 52 fits into 360 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19009.423076
Subtracting 312 from 360 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
52 can be fit into 480 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19009.4230769
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 468 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
52 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19009.42307692
If we take 104 away from 120, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 19009.42307692 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
