298981 ÷ 24 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 24 in 298981.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 24 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 24

Moving on to step 2:
29 divided by 24 is 1 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 24 away from 29, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 24

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 58 by 24, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 48 from 58.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 109 / 24

On to step 4:
24 goes into 109 4 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 124.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 96 from 109.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 138 / 24

Moving on to step 5:
24 can be fit into 138 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1245.0
If we subtract 120 from 138, we get 18.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 181 / 24

On to step 6:
24 goes into 181 7 times with a remainder of 13.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12457.0
Subtracting 168 from 181 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
130 divided by 24 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12457.5
If we subtract 120 from 130, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
24 goes into 100 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12457.54
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 96 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 24, we get 1 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12457.541
If we subtract 24 from 40, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 24, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12457.5416
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 24, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12457.54166
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12457.54166 and a remainder of 1.6e-05.
