Let's divide 471617 by 12
The aim is to understand the frequency of 12 in 471617.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 12, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 12

Advancing to step 2:
The number 12 fits into 47 3 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 36 away from 47, we end up with 11.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 111 / 12

Step 3:
111 divided by 12 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 108 from 111.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 36 / 12

Advancing to step 4:
36 divided by 12 is 3 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 393.0
If we take 36 away from 36, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 1 / 12

On to step 5:
12 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3930.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 12

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 17 by 12, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 39301.0
Subtract 12 from 17 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 50 by 12, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39301.4
Subtract 48 from 50 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
20 divided by 12 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39301.41
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 12 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 9:
80 divided by 12 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39301.416
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 12, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39301.4166
Subtracting 72 from 80 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 39301.4166 with a balance of 8e-05.
