289824 divided by 3 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 3 in 289824.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 28 by 3, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 27 from 28 to get 1.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 19 / 3

Moving on to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 19 6 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96.0
Subtracting 18 from 19 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 3

On to step 4:
When dividing 18 by 3, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 966.0
Deduct 18 from 18 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 2 / 3

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9660.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 3

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 24 by 3, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 96608.0
Subtract 24 from 24 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.

Advancing to step 7:
0 divided by 3 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 96608.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
If we divide 0 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96608.0
If we take 0 away from 0, 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.

Our division results in 96608.0 with a remaining 0.0.
