Let's divide 186706 by 73
The aim is to understand the frequency of 73 in 186706.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 186 / 73

Moving on to step 3:
73 goes into 186 2 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 146 from 186 to get 40.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 407 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
407 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtract 365 from 407 to get 42.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 420 / 73

On to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 255.0
Deduct 365 from 420 and we're left with 55.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 556 / 73

On to step 6:
73 goes into 556 7 times with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2557.0
Subtract 511 from 556 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 73 fits into 450 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2557.6
Subtracting 438 from 450 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 47.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2557.61
If we subtract 73 from 120, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 470 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2557.616
Subtract 438 from 470 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
320 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2557.6164
Subtracting 292 from 320 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 280 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 61.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2557.61643
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 219 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 610 by 73, we get 8 with a remainder of 26.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2557.616438
If we take 584 away from 610, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 260 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 41.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2557.6164383
Deduct 219 from 260 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 73 fits into 410 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2557.61643835
Subtract 365 from 410 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2557.61643835, and the remainder is 4.5e-08.
