72372235 ÷ 499 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 499 in 72372235.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 499, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 499

Going ahead to step 2:
499 goes into 72 0 times with a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 723 / 499

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 723 by 499, we get 1 with a remainder of 224.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 499 from 723 and we're left with 224.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 224, then repeat: 2247 / 499

Moving on to step 4:
The number 499 fits into 2247 4 times, leaving a remainder of 251.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 1996 from 2247 leaves us with 251.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 251, then carry on: 2512 / 499

On to step 5:
If we divide 2512 by 499, we get 5 and a remainder of 17.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145.0
Deduct 2495 from 2512 and we're left with 17.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 172 / 499

Let's proceed to step 6:
172 divided by 499 is 0 with a remainder of 172.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1450.0
The remainder is 172 after subtracting 0 from 172.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 172 and continue: 1723 / 499

Step 7:
If we divide 1723 by 499, we get 3 and a remainder of 226.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14503.0
Subtracting 1497 from 1723 leaves us with 226.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 226 and continue: 2265 / 499

Moving on to step 8:
499 can be fit into 2265 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 269.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145034.0
Subtracting 1996 from 2265 leaves us with 269.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
499 goes into 2690 5 times with a remainder of 195.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145034.5
Subtracting 2495 from 2690 leaves us with 195.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1950, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
499 goes into 1950 3 times with a remainder of 453.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 145034.53
If we subtract 1497 from 1950, we get 453.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4530, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 4530 by 499, we get 9 and a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145034.539
If we take 4491 away from 4530, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 390 by 499, we get 0 and a remainder of 390.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145034.539
Deduct 0 from 390 and we're left with 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 3900 by 499, we get 7 with a remainder of 407.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145034.53907
If we take 3493 away from 3900, we end up with 407.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4070, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 499 fits into 4070 8 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145034.539078
Subtract 3992 from 4070 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
780 divided by 499 is 1 with a remainder of 281.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 145034.5390781
If we subtract 499 from 780, we get 281.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2810, and continue the process.

Step 16:
2810 divided by 499 is 5 with a remainder of 315.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145034.53907815
The remainder is 315 after subtracting 2495 from 2810.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3150, and continue the process.

The final result is 145034.53907815 with a remainder of 3.15e-07.
