Let's divide 42760653 by 172
The aim is to understand the frequency of 172 in 42760653.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 172, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 172

Advancing to step 2:
172 can be fit into 42 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 427 / 172

Let's proceed to step 3:
172 can be fit into 427 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 344 from 427 and we're left with 83.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 83 and continue with: 836 / 172

Moving on to step 4:
172 can be fit into 836 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 148.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 688 from 836 leaves us with 148.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 148, then repeat: 1480 / 172

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1480 by 172, we get 8 with a remainder of 104.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 248.0
If we subtract 1376 from 1480, we get 104.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 104 and continue with: 1046 / 172

Step 6:
172 goes into 1046 6 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2486.0
If we take 1032 away from 1046, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 145 / 172

On to step 7:
The number 172 fits into 145 0 times, leaving a remainder of 145.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24860.0
Subtract 0 from 145 to get 145.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 145, then carry on: 1453 / 172

On to step 8:
172 goes into 1453 8 times with a remainder of 77.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 248608.0
Subtracting 1376 from 1453 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 9:
770 divided by 172 is 4 with a remainder of 82.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 248608.4
Deduct 688 from 770 and we're left with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 820 by 172, we get 4 with a remainder of 132.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 248608.44
Deduct 688 from 820 and we're left with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 248608.44 and a remainder of 0.132.
