55336 ÷ 42 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 42 in 55336.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 42

Step 2:
The number 42 fits into 55 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 55 to get 13.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 133 / 42

On to step 3:
If we divide 133 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 126 from 133 to get 7.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 73 / 42

On to step 4:
When dividing 73 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 131.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 42 from 73.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 316 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
316 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1317.0
Deduct 294 from 316 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 220 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1317.5
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
100 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1317.52
If we take 84 away from 100, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 160 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1317.523
Subtract 126 from 160 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
340 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1317.5238
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 10:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1317.5238
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
42 can be fit into 400 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1317.523809
If we subtract 378 from 400, 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.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1317.5238095
Subtract 210 from 220 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 100 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1317.52380952
If we take 84 away from 100, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1317.52380952 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
