We look at the division of 854428 by 38 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 38 in 854428.

Moving on to step 1:
38 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 85 / 38

Advancing to step 2:
85 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 76 from 85 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 94 / 38

Step 3:
If we divide 94 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtract 76 from 94 to get 18.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 184 / 38

Step 4:
The number 38 fits into 184 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 224.0
Subtracting 152 from 184 leaves us with 32.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 322 / 38

On to step 5:
If we divide 322 by 38, we get 8 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2248.0
Subtract 304 from 322 to get 18.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 188 / 38

On to step 6:
38 can be fit into 188 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22484.0
Subtracting 152 from 188 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 360 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22484.9
If we take 342 away from 360, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 180 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22484.94
If we take 152 away from 180, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 38 fits into 280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22484.947
If we subtract 266 from 280, we 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 140 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22484.9473
If we subtract 114 from 140, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 260 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22484.94736
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 228 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22484.947368
If we subtract 304 from 320, we get 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 13:
When dividing 160 by 38, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22484.9473684
Subtracting 152 from 160 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 80 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22484.94736842
Subtract 76 from 80 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 22484.94736842 with a remaining 4e-09.
