Let's divide 278939 by 97
The aim is to understand the frequency of 97 in 278939.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 97

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 27 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 97

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 278 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 194 from 278, we get 84.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 84, then carry on: 849 / 97

Going ahead to step 4:
97 goes into 849 8 times with a remainder of 73.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 776 from 849 leaves us with 73.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 733 / 97

On to step 5:
733 divided by 97 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 287.0
Subtract 679 from 733 to get 54.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 549 / 97

Moving on to step 6:
The number 97 fits into 549 5 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2875.0
Subtract 485 from 549 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 97 fits into 640 6 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2875.6
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 582 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
580 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 95.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2875.65
Deduct 485 from 580 and we're left with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
97 goes into 950 9 times with a remainder of 77.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2875.659
Subtract 873 from 950 to get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 770 by 97, we get 7 with a remainder of 91.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2875.6597
Subtracting 679 from 770 leaves us with 91.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 910, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 910 by 97, we get 9 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2875.65979
Subtract 873 from 910 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 97 fits into 370 3 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2875.659793
Deduct 291 from 370 and we're left with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 97 fits into 790 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2875.6597938
Subtracting 776 from 790 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 14:
140 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2875.65979381
Subtracting 97 from 140 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2875.65979381 with a balance of 4.3e-08.
