We divide 27879 by 38
The aim is to understand the frequency of 38 in 27879.

Step 1:
2 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 38

Step 2:
If we divide 27 by 38, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 278 by 38, we get 7 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 266 from 278 leaves us with 12.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 127 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 127 by 38, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 114 from 127.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 139 / 38

Let's proceed to step 5:
38 can be fit into 139 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 733.0
Subtract 114 from 139 to get 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 6:
38 can be fit into 250 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 733.6
If we take 228 away from 250, we end up 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 220 by 38, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 733.65
If we subtract 190 from 220, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 300 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 733.657
If we take 266 away from 300, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 9:
340 divided by 38 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 733.6578
Subtract 304 from 340 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 38, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 733.65789
Deduct 342 from 360 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 180 by 38, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 733.657894
Subtract 152 from 180 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
280 divided by 38 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 733.6578947
If we take 266 away from 280, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 140 by 38, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 733.65789473
Subtracting 114 from 140 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 733.65789473, and the remainder is 2.6e-08.
