We're dividing 416897 by 42 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 42 in 416897.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 41 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 41 0 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 41 and we're left with 41.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 416 / 42

Step 3:
42 can be fit into 416 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 378 away from 416, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 388 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 388 9 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 99.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 378 from 388.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 109 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
109 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 25.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 992.0
Deduct 84 from 109 and we're left with 25.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 257 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 257 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9926.0
If we subtract 252 from 257, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9926.1
Subtracting 42 from 50 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
42 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9926.11
Deduct 42 from 80 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9926.11 and a remainder of 0.038.
