Let's divide 408771 by 74
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 408771.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 74

Step 2:
40 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 408 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
408 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 370 from 408.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 387 / 74

On to step 4:
387 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 17.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we take 370 away from 387, we end up with 17.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 177 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
177 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 552.0
Subtract 148 from 177 to get 29.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 291 / 74

Step 6:
The number 74 fits into 291 3 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5523.0
Subtracting 222 from 291 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
690 divided by 74 is 9 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5523.9
Subtracting 666 from 690 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 240 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5523.93
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 222 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5523.932
If we take 148 away from 180, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
74 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5523.9324
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5523.93243
Subtract 222 from 240 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
180 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5523.932432
If we take 148 away from 180, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
74 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5523.9324324
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
74 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5523.93243243
Subtracting 222 from 240 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5523.93243243 with a balance of 1.8e-08.
