We divide 470477 by 78
The aim is to understand the frequency of 78 in 470477.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 78

On to step 2:
If we divide 47 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 470 / 78

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 470 by 78, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 468 away from 470, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 78

Step 4:
The number 78 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 247 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 247 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 603.0
Subtract 234 from 247 to get 13.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 137 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
78 can be fit into 137 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6031.0
If we subtract 78 from 137, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
78 goes into 590 7 times with a remainder of 44.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6031.7
If we subtract 546 from 590, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
78 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6031.75
If we subtract 390 from 440, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
500 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6031.756
If we take 468 away from 500, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 10:
320 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6031.7564
Subtracting 312 from 320 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 78 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6031.75641
If we subtract 78 from 80, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
20 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6031.75641
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
200 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6031.7564102
Deduct 156 from 200 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6031.75641025
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 390 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6031.75641025 with a remaining 5e-08.
