42487976 divided by 590 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 590 in 42487976.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 590 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 590

Advancing to step 2:
The number 590 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 0 from 42.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 424 / 590

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 424 by 590, we get 0 and a remainder of 424.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 424, we get 424.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 424 and repeat the process: 4248 / 590

Advancing to step 4:
The number 590 fits into 4248 7 times, leaving a remainder of 118.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 4130 from 4248 and we're left with 118.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 118 and continue: 1187 / 590

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 1187 by 590, we get 2 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 72.0
If we take 1180 away from 1187, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 79 / 590

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 79 by 590, we get 0 and a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 720.0
Subtract 0 from 79 to get 79.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 79 and continue with: 797 / 590

Step 7:
If we divide 797 by 590, we get 1 and a remainder of 207.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7201.0
If we take 590 away from 797, we end up with 207.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 207, then carry on: 2076 / 590

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 2076 by 590, we get 3 with a remainder of 306.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 72013.0
If we take 1770 away from 2076, we end up with 306.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3060, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
590 goes into 3060 5 times with a remainder of 110.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 72013.5
Deduct 2950 from 3060 and we're left with 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
590 goes into 1100 1 times with a remainder of 510.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 72013.51
If we subtract 590 from 1100, we get 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
5100 divided by 590 is 8 with a remainder of 380.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 72013.518
If we subtract 4720 from 5100, we get 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3800, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 3800 by 590, we get 6 and a remainder of 260.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 72013.5186
Subtracting 3540 from 3800 leaves us with 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2600, and continue the process.

Step 13:
590 goes into 2600 4 times with a remainder of 240.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 72013.51864
If we take 2360 away from 2600, we end up with 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
590 goes into 2400 4 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 72013.518644
Deduct 2360 from 2400 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 72013.518644 with a remaining 4e-06.
