462401 divided by 31 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 31 in 462401.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 31, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 31

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 46 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 31 from 46 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 152 / 31

On to step 3:
152 divided by 31 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 124 away from 152, we end up with 28.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 284 / 31

Moving on to step 4:
284 divided by 31 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149.0
Subtracting 279 from 284 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 50 / 31

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 50 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1491.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 31 from 50.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 191 / 31

Step 6:
31 can be fit into 191 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14916.0
If we subtract 186 from 191, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 31, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14916.1
Subtracting 31 from 50 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 190 by 31, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14916.16
Subtract 186 from 190 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 31, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14916.161
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 31 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
31 goes into 90 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14916.1612
Subtracting 62 from 90 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 280 by 31, we get 9 with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14916.16129
Subtract 279 from 280 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 12:
31 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14916.16129
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 100 by 31, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14916.1612903
If we subtract 93 from 100, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
31 goes into 70 2 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 14916.16129032
If we subtract 62 from 70, 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.

Our division results in 14916.16129032 with a remaining 8e-09.
