We divide 461905 by 87
The aim is to understand the frequency of 87 in 461905.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 46 0 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 46, we end up with 46.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 461 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
87 goes into 461 5 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 435 from 461 to get 26.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 269 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 269 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 8.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 53.0
Deduct 261 from 269 and we're left with 8.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 80 / 87

On to step 5:
When dividing 80 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 530.0
Deduct 0 from 80 and we're left with 80.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 80, then repeat: 805 / 87

Step 6:
The number 87 fits into 805 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5309.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 783 from 805.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5309.2
Subtract 174 from 220 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 460 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5309.25
Subtracting 435 from 460 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
87 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5309.252
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 174 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 760 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5309.2528
Deduct 696 from 760 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
87 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 31.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5309.25287
If we take 609 away from 640, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
87 can be fit into 310 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5309.252873
Subtract 261 from 310 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 490 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5309.2528735
If we subtract 435 from 490, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
87 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5309.25287356
If we take 522 away from 550, we end up 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.

The final result is 5309.25287356 with a remainder of 2.8e-08.
