48235286 ÷ 142 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 142 in 48235286.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 142 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 142

On to step 2:
142 goes into 48 0 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 482 / 142

Let's proceed to step 3:
482 divided by 142 is 3 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 426 from 482 to get 56.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 563 / 142

On to step 4:
When dividing 563 by 142, we get 3 with a remainder of 137.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 33.0
If we subtract 426 from 563, we get 137.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 137, then carry on: 1375 / 142

Let's proceed to step 5:
142 can be fit into 1375 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 97.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 339.0
Deduct 1278 from 1375 and we're left with 97.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 97 and continue: 972 / 142

Moving on to step 6:
142 can be fit into 972 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 120.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3396.0
Deduct 852 from 972 and we're left with 120.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 120 and continue with: 1208 / 142

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 1208 by 142, we get 8 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 33968.0
If we take 1136 away from 1208, we end up with 72.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 726 / 142

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 726 by 142, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 339685.0
Subtract 710 from 726 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 142 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 339685.1
If we take 142 away from 160, we end up 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.

Step 10:
142 goes into 180 1 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 339685.11
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 142 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Our division results in 339685.11 with a remaining 0.038.
