Let's divide 492696 by 3
The aim is to understand the frequency of 3 in 492696.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 3 fits into 4 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 3 from 4 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 3

Going ahead to step 2:
19 divided by 3 is 6 with a remainder of 1.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 18 from 19 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 3

On to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 12 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 164.0
Subtract 12 from 12 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 3

On to step 4:
3 can be fit into 6 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1642.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 6 from 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 3

Advancing to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 9 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16423.0
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 6 / 3

On to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 6 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 164232.0
If we take 6 away from 6, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 164232.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 164232.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 164232.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
