We look at the division of 18742618 by 8 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 8 in 18742618.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 8

On to step 2:
8 goes into 18 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 16 from 18 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 8

Advancing to step 3:
8 goes into 27 3 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 24 away from 27, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 34 / 8

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 34 by 8, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 234.0
If we take 32 away from 34, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
22 divided by 8 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2342.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 16 from 22.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 66 / 8

On to step 6:
66 divided by 8 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23428.0
Subtracting 64 from 66 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 8

Step 7:
8 can be fit into 21 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 234282.0
If we take 16 away from 21, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 8

Moving on to step 8:
8 goes into 58 7 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2342827.0
Subtract 56 from 58 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 8 fits into 20 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2342827.2
Subtracting 16 from 20 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2342827.25
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 40 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 0 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2342827.25
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 12:
8 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2342827.25
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2342827.25 with a balance of 0.0.
