We divide 86878756 by 254
The aim is to understand the frequency of 254 in 86878756.

Let's proceed to step 1:
254 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 254

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 86 by 254, we get 0 and a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 86 leaves us with 86.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 86, then repeat: 868 / 254

Step 3:
The number 254 fits into 868 3 times, leaving a remainder of 106.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 762 away from 868, we end up with 106.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 106 and repeat the process: 1067 / 254

Step 4:
When dividing 1067 by 254, we get 4 with a remainder of 51.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtract 1016 from 1067 to get 51.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 518 / 254

Step 5:
254 goes into 518 2 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 342.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 508 from 518.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 107 / 254

Advancing to step 6:
107 divided by 254 is 0 with a remainder of 107.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3420.0
The remainder is 107 after subtracting 0 from 107.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 107, then repeat: 1075 / 254

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 1075 by 254, we get 4 and a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 34204.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 1016 from 1075.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 596 / 254

Step 8:
When dividing 596 by 254, we get 2 with a remainder of 88.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 342042.0
Subtracting 508 from 596 leaves us with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 880 by 254, we get 3 with a remainder of 118.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 342042.3
Subtracting 762 from 880 leaves us with 118.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
1180 divided by 254 is 4 with a remainder of 164.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 342042.34
Deduct 1016 from 1180 and we're left with 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 254 fits into 1640 6 times, leaving a remainder of 116.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 342042.346
Subtracting 1524 from 1640 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
1160 divided by 254 is 4 with a remainder of 144.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 342042.3464
Deduct 1016 from 1160 and we're left with 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 254 fits into 1440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 170.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 342042.34645
If we subtract 1270 from 1440, we get 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 254 fits into 1700 6 times, leaving a remainder of 176.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 342042.346456
Subtract 1524 from 1700 to get 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 1760 by 254, we get 6 with a remainder of 236.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 342042.3464566
Subtracting 1524 from 1760 leaves us with 236.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2360, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 342042.3464566, with a leftover of 2.36e-06.
