Let's divide 281088 by 98
The aim is to understand the frequency of 98 in 281088.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 98

On to step 2:
The number 98 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 281 / 98

Step 3:
281 divided by 98 is 2 with a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 196 from 281 leaves us with 85.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 85, then repeat: 850 / 98

Step 4:
98 goes into 850 8 times with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 784 from 850, we get 66.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 66 and repeat the process: 668 / 98

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 668 by 98, we get 6 with a remainder of 80.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 286.0
If we take 588 away from 668, we end up with 80.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 80, then repeat: 808 / 98

On to step 6:
The number 98 fits into 808 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2868.0
Subtract 784 from 808 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 7:
98 can be fit into 240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2868.2
If we subtract 196 from 240, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 440 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2868.24
Subtract 392 from 440 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
480 divided by 98 is 4 with a remainder of 88.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2868.244
The remainder is 88 after subtracting 392 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2868.244, and the remainder is 0.0088.
