We divide 426780 by 42
The aim is to understand the frequency of 42 in 426780.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 42

Step 2:
42 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 42 to get 0.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 6 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 6 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 67 / 42

On to step 4:
42 goes into 67 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 101.0
Deduct 42 from 67 and we're left with 25.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 258 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
258 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1016.0
If we take 252 away from 258, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 60 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 60 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10161.0
If we take 42 away from 60, 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 7:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10161.4
If we subtract 168 from 180, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
120 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10161.42
Subtracting 84 from 120 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
360 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10161.428
If we subtract 336 from 360, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
42 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10161.4285
If we subtract 210 from 240, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10161.42857
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 294 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 10161.428571
If we take 42 away from 60, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 180 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10161.4285714
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 120 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10161.42857142
If we subtract 84 from 120, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

The final result is 10161.42857142 with a remainder of 3.6e-08.
