We're dividing 878174 by 46 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 46 in 878174.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 46

Let's proceed to step 2:
46 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 46 from 87, we get 41.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 418 / 46

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 418 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 414 from 418 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 41 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
46 can be fit into 41 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 190.0
If we subtract 0 from 41, we get 41.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 417 / 46

On to step 5:
If we divide 417 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1909.0
If we take 414 away from 417, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 34 / 46

Going ahead to step 6:
34 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19090.0
If we take 0 away from 34, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 46 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19090.7
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 322 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
46 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19090.73
Subtracting 138 from 180 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
420 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 6.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19090.739
If we take 414 away from 420, 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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 60 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19090.7391
If we subtract 46 from 60, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19090.73913
Deduct 138 from 140 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
20 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19090.73913
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19090.7391304
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 160 by 46, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19090.73913043
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final result is 19090.73913043 with a remainder of 2.2e-08.
