We divide 87217845 by 281
The aim is to understand the frequency of 281 in 87217845.

Step 1:
The number 281 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 281

On to step 2:
87 divided by 281 is 0 with a remainder of 87.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 87 to get 87.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 87 and continue with: 872 / 281

Step 3:
281 goes into 872 3 times with a remainder of 29.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 843 from 872 and we're left with 29.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 291 / 281

Moving on to step 4:
281 goes into 291 1 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtracting 281 from 291 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 107 / 281

On to step 5:
281 can be fit into 107 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 107.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 310.0
If we take 0 away from 107, we end up with 107.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 107, then repeat: 1078 / 281

On to step 6:
281 goes into 1078 3 times with a remainder of 235.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3103.0
If we take 843 away from 1078, we end up with 235.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 235, then repeat: 2354 / 281

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 2354 by 281, we get 8 with a remainder of 106.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31038.0
The remainder is 106 after subtracting 2248 from 2354.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 106, then repeat: 1065 / 281

Step 8:
The number 281 fits into 1065 3 times, leaving a remainder of 222.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 310383.0
Subtracting 843 from 1065 leaves us with 222.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2220, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 281 fits into 2220 7 times, leaving a remainder of 253.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 310383.7
Subtracting 1967 from 2220 leaves us with 253.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 2530 by 281, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 310383.79
Subtracting 2529 from 2530 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 10 by 281, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 310383.79
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
100 divided by 281 is 0 with a remainder of 100.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 310383.79
Subtracting 0 from 100 leaves us with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 310383.79, with a leftover of 0.001.
