We're dividing 654281 by 38 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 38 in 654281.

Step 1:
The number 38 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 65 / 38

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 65 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 38 from 65, we get 27.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 274 / 38

Step 3:
If we divide 274 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 266 from 274, we get 8.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 82 / 38

On to step 4:
If we divide 82 by 38, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 172.0
Subtracting 76 from 82 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 38

Step 5:
68 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1721.0
If we take 38 away from 68, we end up with 30.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 301 / 38

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 301 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 35.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17217.0
If we take 266 away from 301, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
38 goes into 350 9 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17217.9
Deduct 342 from 350 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
80 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17217.92
If we subtract 76 from 80, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
40 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17217.921
If we take 38 away from 40, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 38 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17217.921
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 200 by 38, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17217.92105
Deduct 190 from 200 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
38 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17217.921052
Deduct 76 from 100 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
240 divided by 38 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17217.9210526
If we take 228 away from 240, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
120 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17217.92105263
Deduct 114 from 120 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Our division results in 17217.92105263 with a remaining 6e-09.
