We look at the division of 234282 by 40 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 40 in 234282.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 40

On to step 2:
When dividing 23 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 234 / 40

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 234 by 40, we get 5 and a remainder of 34.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 200 from 234 and we're left with 34.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 342 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
342 divided by 40 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtract 320 from 342 to get 22.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 228 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
40 can be fit into 228 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 585.0
Subtracting 200 from 228 leaves us with 28.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 282 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
40 goes into 282 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5857.0
Deduct 280 from 282 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 40 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5857.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
200 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5857.05
If we take 200 away from 200, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5857.05
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 40 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5857.05
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5857.05, with a leftover of 0.0.
