We're dividing 36844174 by 988 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 988 in 36844174.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 988

Step 2:
When dividing 36 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 368 / 988

Step 3:
368 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 368.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 368, we end up with 368.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 368, then repeat: 3684 / 988

Step 4:
988 can be fit into 3684 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 720.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 2964 from 3684 and we're left with 720.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 720, then carry on: 7204 / 988

On to step 5:
7204 divided by 988 is 7 with a remainder of 288.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we take 6916 away from 7204, we end up with 288.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 288 and continue: 2881 / 988

Let's proceed to step 6:
988 can be fit into 2881 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 905.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 372.0
If we subtract 1976 from 2881, we get 905.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 905, then carry on: 9057 / 988

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 9057 by 988, we get 9 with a remainder of 165.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3729.0
If we subtract 8892 from 9057, we get 165.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 165, then repeat: 1654 / 988

Going ahead to step 8:
988 can be fit into 1654 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 666.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37291.0
If we subtract 988 from 1654, we get 666.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
988 goes into 6660 6 times with a remainder of 732.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 37291.6
If we take 5928 away from 6660, we end up with 732.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
988 goes into 7320 7 times with a remainder of 404.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37291.67
The remainder is 404 after subtracting 6916 from 7320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4040, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
988 goes into 4040 4 times with a remainder of 88.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37291.674
Subtract 3952 from 4040 to get 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 880 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 880.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37291.674
The remainder is 880 after subtracting 0 from 880.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8800, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
8800 divided by 988 is 8 with a remainder of 896.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37291.67408
Subtract 7904 from 8800 to get 896.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 988 fits into 8960 9 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37291.674089
Subtracting 8892 from 8960 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
988 goes into 680 0 times with a remainder of 680.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37291.674089
If we take 0 away from 680, we end up with 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 6800 by 988, we get 6 and a remainder of 872.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37291.67408906
If we subtract 5928 from 6800, we get 872.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8720, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 37291.67408906 and a remainder of 8.72e-07.
