Let's divide 273596 by 23
The aim is to understand the frequency of 23 in 273596.

Going ahead to step 1:
23 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
23 can be fit into 27 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 23 from 27 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 43 / 23

On to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 43 1 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 23 from 43, we get 20.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 205 / 23

On to step 4:
23 goes into 205 8 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
If we subtract 184 from 205, we get 21.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 219 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 219 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1189.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 207 from 219.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 126 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 126 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11895.0
Subtract 115 from 126 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 110 4 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11895.4
Deduct 92 from 110 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
180 divided by 23 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11895.47
If we subtract 161 from 180, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 23 fits into 190 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11895.478
If we subtract 184 from 190, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
23 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11895.4782
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 140 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11895.47826
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11895.47826
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11895.4782608
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
23 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11895.47826086
Deduct 138 from 160 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11895.47826086 and a remainder of 2.2e-08.
