We divide 37421786 by 279
The aim is to understand the frequency of 279 in 37421786.

On to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 279, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 279

Step 2:
279 goes into 37 0 times with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 0 from 37.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 374 / 279

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 374 by 279, we get 1 and a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 279 from 374 to get 95.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 95, then repeat: 952 / 279

Going ahead to step 4:
952 divided by 279 is 3 with a remainder of 115.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 837 away from 952, we end up with 115.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 115 and repeat the process: 1151 / 279

Moving on to step 5:
1151 divided by 279 is 4 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 134.0
Deduct 1116 from 1151 and we're left with 35.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 357 / 279

Let's proceed to step 6:
279 can be fit into 357 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1341.0
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 279 from 357.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 78 and repeat the process: 788 / 279

Step 7:
788 divided by 279 is 2 with a remainder of 230.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13412.0
Subtracting 558 from 788 leaves us with 230.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 230 and continue: 2306 / 279

Moving on to step 8:
The number 279 fits into 2306 8 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 134128.0
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 2232 from 2306.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
740 divided by 279 is 2 with a remainder of 182.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 134128.2
If we take 558 away from 740, we end up with 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 1820 by 279, we get 6 and a remainder of 146.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 134128.26
The remainder is 146 after subtracting 1674 from 1820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 279 fits into 1460 5 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 134128.265
Deduct 1395 from 1460 and we're left with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 650 by 279, we get 2 and a remainder of 92.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 134128.2652
Deduct 558 from 650 and we're left with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Step 13:
920 divided by 279 is 3 with a remainder of 83.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 134128.26523
Subtracting 837 from 920 leaves us with 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
279 can be fit into 830 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 272.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 134128.265232
Subtract 558 from 830 to get 272.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 2720 by 279, we get 9 and a remainder of 209.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 134128.2652329
Subtract 2511 from 2720 to get 209.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2090, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
2090 divided by 279 is 7 with a remainder of 137.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 134128.26523297
If we take 1953 away from 2090, we end up with 137.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1370, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 134128.26523297, and the remainder is 1.37e-07.
