288981 ÷ 98 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 98 in 288981.

Let's proceed to step 1:
98 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 98

Advancing to step 2:
28 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 288 / 98

On to step 3:
If we divide 288 by 98, we get 2 and a remainder of 92.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 196 from 288, we get 92.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 92 and continue: 929 / 98

On to step 4:
98 can be fit into 929 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 882 from 929 and we're left with 47.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 478 / 98

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 478 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 86.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 294.0
If we take 392 away from 478, we end up with 86.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 86 and repeat the process: 861 / 98

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 861 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2948.0
If we take 784 away from 861, we end up with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 98 fits into 770 7 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2948.7
If we take 686 away from 770, we end up with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
98 goes into 840 8 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2948.78
If we take 784 away from 840, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
98 can be fit into 560 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2948.785
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 490 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
700 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2948.7857
If we subtract 686 from 700, 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2948.78571
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 98 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
420 divided by 98 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2948.785714
Deduct 392 from 420 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
The number 98 fits into 280 2 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2948.7857142
Deduct 196 from 280 and we're left with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 840 by 98, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2948.78571428
If we subtract 784 from 840, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final result is 2948.78571428 with a remainder of 5.6e-08.
