We divide 988975 by 38
The aim is to understand the frequency of 38 in 988975.

Step 1:
38 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 38

Step 2:
98 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 76 from 98 leaves us with 22.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 228 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
38 goes into 228 6 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 228 from 228, we get 0.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 9 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
38 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 260.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 97 2 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2602.0
Subtracting 76 from 97 leaves us with 21.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 215 / 38

Going ahead to step 6:
215 divided by 38 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26025.0
Subtracting 190 from 215 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26025.6
If we take 228 away from 250, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 220 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26025.65
Subtracting 190 from 220 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
38 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26025.657
If we subtract 266 from 300, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
38 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26025.6578
Deduct 304 from 340 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 360 by 38, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26025.65789
Deduct 342 from 360 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
38 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26025.657894
Subtracting 152 from 180 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 13:
The number 38 fits into 280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26025.6578947
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 266 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 140 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26025.65789473
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 114 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 26025.65789473 and a remainder of 2.6e-08.
