We divide 496177 by 72
The aim is to understand the frequency of 72 in 496177.

On to step 1:
72 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 72

Step 2:
72 can be fit into 49 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 496 / 72

On to step 3:
When dividing 496 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 432 from 496 and we're left with 64.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 64 and continue: 641 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 641 8 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 576 away from 641, we end up with 65.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 65 and continue: 657 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 657 9 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 689.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 648 from 657.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 72

On to step 6:
72 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6891.0
If we take 72 away from 97, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
72 goes into 250 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6891.3
If we subtract 216 from 250, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
72 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6891.34
Subtract 288 from 340 to 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.

Advancing to step 9:
72 can be fit into 520 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6891.347
If we take 504 away from 520, 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
160 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6891.3472
If we subtract 144 from 160, 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6891.34722
Subtract 144 from 160 to 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.

The final result is 6891.34722 with a remainder of 1.6e-05.
