Let's divide 148787 by 46
The aim is to understand the frequency of 46 in 148787.

Going ahead to step 1:
46 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 46

On to step 2:
14 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 148 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 148 3 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 138 from 148 and we're left with 10.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 107 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
107 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 15.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtract 92 from 107 to get 15.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 158 / 46

On to step 5:
46 can be fit into 158 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 323.0
If we take 138 away from 158, we end up with 20.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 207 / 46

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 207 4 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3234.0
If we take 184 away from 207, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
230 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3234.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 230 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
46 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3234.5
If we take 0 away from 0, 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.

Step 9:
46 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3234.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

The final result is 3234.5 with a remainder of 0.0.
