981177 divided by 52 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 52 in 981177.

Advancing to step 1:
9 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 52

Going ahead to step 2:
52 goes into 98 1 times with 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.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 461 / 52

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 461 by 52, we get 8 with a remainder of 45.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 416 from 461, we get 45.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 451 / 52

Let's proceed to step 4:
52 goes into 451 8 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 188.0
Deduct 416 from 451 and we're left with 35.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 357 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
357 divided by 52 is 6 with a remainder of 45.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1886.0
Subtracting 312 from 357 leaves us with 45.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 457 / 52

Advancing to step 6:
The number 52 fits into 457 8 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18868.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 416 from 457.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 410 by 52, we get 7 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 18868.7
Subtracting 364 from 410 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 460 by 52, we get 8 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18868.78
If we take 416 away from 460, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 440 by 52, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18868.788
Subtract 416 from 440 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 18868.788 with a remainder of 0.0024.
