We divide 230989 by 16
The aim is to understand the frequency of 16 in 230989.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 16 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 16

On to step 2:
The number 16 fits into 23 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 16 from 23 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 70 / 16

Moving on to step 3:
16 goes into 70 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 64 from 70 and we're left with 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 16

On to step 4:
16 can be fit into 69 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 144.0
Subtract 64 from 69 to get 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 16

On to step 5:
16 goes into 58 3 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1443.0
If we take 48 away from 58, we end up with 10.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 109 / 16

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 109 by 16, we get 6 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14436.0
If we subtract 96 from 109, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
16 can be fit into 130 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14436.8
If we take 128 away from 130, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
16 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14436.81
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 16 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 16, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 14436.812
If we subtract 32 from 40, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 16 fits into 80 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 14436.8125
If we subtract 80 from 80, 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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 0 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14436.8125
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.

Step 12:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14436.8125
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.

The quotient of the division is 14436.8125, and the remainder is 0.0.
