We divide 179508 by 2
The aim is to understand the frequency of 2 in 179508.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 2

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 2, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 16 from 17 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 2

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 19 by 2, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 89.0
Subtract 18 from 19 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
The number 2 fits into 15 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 897.0
Subtracting 14 from 15 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 10 / 2

Step 5:
2 goes into 10 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8975.0
If we take 10 away from 10, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 2

On to step 6:
2 goes into 8 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 89754.0
If we take 8 away from 8, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 89754.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 89754.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 89754.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
