We divide 838842 by 28
The aim is to understand the frequency of 28 in 838842.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 28, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 83 / 28

Step 2:
The number 28 fits into 83 2 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 56 from 83 to get 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 28

On to step 3:
278 divided by 28 is 9 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 252 from 278.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 268 / 28

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 268 by 28, we get 9 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 299.0
Subtracting 252 from 268 leaves us with 16.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 164 / 28

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 164 by 28, we get 5 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2995.0
If we take 140 away from 164, we end up with 24.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 242 / 28

Step 6:
28 goes into 242 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29958.0
Subtracting 224 from 242 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
180 divided by 28 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29958.6
Subtracting 168 from 180 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 28, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29958.64
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 112 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
80 divided by 28 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29958.642
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
240 divided by 28 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29958.6428
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
28 goes into 160 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29958.64285
Subtract 140 from 160 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 200 by 28, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29958.642857
Deduct 196 from 200 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
28 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 29958.6428571
If we take 28 away from 40, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 120 by 28, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29958.64285714
If we subtract 112 from 120, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 29958.64285714 and a remainder of 8e-09.
