We're dividing 296259 by 74 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 296259.

Step 1:
2 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 74

On to step 2:
74 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 296 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
74 can be fit into 296 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 296 from 296 and we're left with 0.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 74

Step 4:
74 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 25 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 400.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 259 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
259 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 37.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4003.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 222 from 259.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 370 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4003.5
If we take 370 away from 370, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4003.5
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 0 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4003.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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.

The final result is 4003.5 with a remainder of 0.0.
