We divide 754717 by 85
The aim is to understand the frequency of 85 in 754717.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 75 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
85 goes into 75 0 times with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 75, we end up with 75.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 75 and continue: 754 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 754 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 680 from 754, we get 74.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 747 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 747 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 88.0
Deduct 680 from 747 and we're left with 67.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 67, then carry on: 671 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
85 goes into 671 7 times with a remainder of 76.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 887.0
Subtract 595 from 671 to get 76.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 76 and repeat the process: 767 / 85

Let's proceed to step 6:
85 goes into 767 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8879.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 765 from 767.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
85 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8879.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
85 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8879.02
If we take 170 away from 200, we end up 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 9:
When dividing 300 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 45.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8879.023
If we take 255 away from 300, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
450 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8879.0235
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 425 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
85 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8879.02352
If we take 170 away from 250, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 800 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8879.023529
Subtracting 765 from 800 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 13:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8879.0235294
Deduct 340 from 350 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
85 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8879.02352941
Subtract 85 from 100 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 8879.02352941 and a remainder of 1.5e-08.
