Let's divide 147749 by 74
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 147749.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 74

Step 2:
The number 74 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 147 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
74 can be fit into 147 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 74 from 147 leaves us with 73.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 73, then repeat: 737 / 74

On to step 4:
When dividing 737 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 71.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 666 from 737, we get 71.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 71, then repeat: 714 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
714 divided by 74 is 9 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 199.0
Subtracting 666 from 714 leaves us with 48.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 489 / 74

Step 6:
If we divide 489 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1996.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 444 from 489.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
74 goes into 450 6 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1996.6
Subtracting 444 from 450 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
74 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1996.6
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
74 can be fit into 600 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1996.608
Subtracting 592 from 600 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
80 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1996.6081
If we take 74 away from 80, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 11:
60 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1996.6081
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
74 can be fit into 600 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1996.608108
If we subtract 592 from 600, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
80 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1996.6081081
Subtracting 74 from 80 leaves us with 6.
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 14:
The number 74 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1996.6081081
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1996.6081081, with a leftover of 6e-08.
