Let's divide 869687 by 48
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 869687.

Let's proceed to step 1:
48 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 86 / 48

Step 2:
When dividing 86 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 48 from 86, we get 38.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 389 / 48

Step 3:
If we divide 389 by 48, we get 8 and a remainder of 5.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 384 away from 389, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 56 / 48

On to step 4:
When dividing 56 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 181.0
Subtract 48 from 56 to get 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 88 1 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1811.0
Deduct 48 from 88 and we're left with 40.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 407 / 48

On to step 6:
When dividing 407 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18118.0
If we take 384 away from 407, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18118.4
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 192 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
48 can be fit into 380 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18118.47
Deduct 336 from 380 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 9:
48 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18118.479
Deduct 432 from 440 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
48 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18118.4791
If we take 48 away from 80, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18118.47916
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18118.479166
If we subtract 288 from 320, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 18118.479166 with a balance of 3.2e-06.
