880596 ÷ 42 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 42 in 880596.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 can be fit into 88 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 84 away from 88, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 42

Step 3:
42 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 405 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 405 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 209.0
If we take 378 away from 405, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 279 / 42

Step 5:
When dividing 279 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 27.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2096.0
Deduct 252 from 279 and we're left with 27.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 276 / 42

On to step 6:
42 goes into 276 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20966.0
Subtract 252 from 276 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 240 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20966.5
Subtract 210 from 240 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
42 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20966.57
If we take 294 away from 300, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
42 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 20966.571
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 42 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
42 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20966.5714
If we subtract 168 from 180, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20966.57142
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20966.571428
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
42 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 20966.5714285
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
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 14:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 20966.57142857
If we subtract 294 from 300, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final result is 20966.57142857 with a remainder of 6e-09.
