293667 divided by 42 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 42 in 293667.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 42

On to step 2:
29 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 293 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 can be fit into 293 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 252 from 293 leaves us with 41.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 416 / 42

On to step 4:
When dividing 416 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 69.0
Subtracting 378 from 416 leaves us with 38.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 386 / 42

On to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 386 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 699.0
If we subtract 378 from 386, we get 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 87 2 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6992.0
Subtract 84 from 87 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 30 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6992.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
42 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6992.07
If we take 294 away from 300, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6992.071
Subtracting 42 from 60 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.

Advancing to step 10:
180 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6992.0714
Deduct 168 from 180 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6992.07142
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 84 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
360 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6992.071428
Subtracting 336 from 360 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6992.0714285
Deduct 210 from 240 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6992.07142857
Subtracting 294 from 300 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final result is 6992.07142857 with a remainder of 6e-09.
