We divide 214416 by 1
The aim is to understand the frequency of 1 in 214416.

Moving on to step 1:
1 goes into 2 2 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 2 away from 2, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 1

Moving on to step 2:
1 can be fit into 1 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 1 from 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 1

On to step 3:
If we divide 4 by 1, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 214.0
Deduct 4 from 4 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 4 / 1

On to step 4:
The number 1 fits into 4 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2144.0
Deduct 4 from 4 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 1 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
1 divided by 1 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21441.0
Subtract 1 from 1 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 1

On to step 6:
When dividing 6 by 1, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 214416.0
If we subtract 6 from 6, 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 7:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 214416.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

On to step 8:
1 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 214416.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 214416.0 and a remainder of 0.0.
