We divide 678796 by 87
The aim is to understand the frequency of 87 in 678796.

Going ahead to step 1:
6 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 67 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 67 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 67, we get 67.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 678 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 678 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 69.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 609 from 678, we get 69.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 69 and continue: 697 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 697 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 78.0
Deduct 696 from 697 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 87

On to step 5:
If we divide 19 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 780.0
Subtracting 0 from 19 leaves us with 19.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 196 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 87 fits into 196 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7802.0
Subtracting 174 from 196 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 46.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7802.2
If we take 174 away from 220, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
460 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7802.25
Subtracting 435 from 460 leaves us 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 9:
87 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7802.252
Deduct 174 from 250 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
87 can be fit into 760 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7802.2528
If we subtract 696 from 760, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 640 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7802.25287
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 609 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
310 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7802.252873
Deduct 261 from 310 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 87 fits into 490 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7802.2528735
Subtracting 435 from 490 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 87 fits into 550 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7802.25287356
If we take 522 away from 550, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7802.25287356 and a remainder of 2.8e-08.
