728979 ÷ 26 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 26 in 728979.

On to step 1:
26 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 52 from 72 leaves us with 20.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 208 / 26

Step 3:
The number 26 fits into 208 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 208 from 208.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 26

Step 4:
26 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 280.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 26

Advancing to step 5:
26 can be fit into 97 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2803.0
If we subtract 78 from 97, we get 19.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 199 / 26

Step 6:
The number 26 fits into 199 7 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28037.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 182 from 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 26 fits into 170 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28037.6
Subtract 156 from 170 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
26 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28037.65
Subtract 130 from 140 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
26 goes into 100 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28037.653
Deduct 78 from 100 and we're left with 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 10:
26 can be fit into 220 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28037.6538
Deduct 208 from 220 and we're left with 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 11:
26 can be fit into 120 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28037.65384
Deduct 104 from 120 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 160 by 26, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 28037.653846
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left 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 13:
40 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28037.6538461
Subtracting 26 from 40 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
26 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28037.65384615
If we subtract 130 from 140, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 28037.65384615 and a remainder of 1e-08.
