Let's divide 427076 by 23
The aim is to understand the frequency of 23 in 427076.

On to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 23

On to step 2:
When dividing 42 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 23 from 42 and we're left with 19.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 197 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 197 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 13.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 184 away from 197, we end up with 13.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 130 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 185.0
Subtracting 115 from 130 leaves us with 15.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 157 / 23

Step 5:
23 can be fit into 157 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1856.0
Deduct 138 from 157 and we're left with 19.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 196 / 23

Moving on to step 6:
The number 23 fits into 196 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18568.0
If we take 184 away from 196, 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 7:
23 can be fit into 120 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18568.5
Subtract 115 from 120 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.

Moving on to step 8:
23 goes into 50 2 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18568.52
If we subtract 46 from 50, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18568.521
If we subtract 23 from 40, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 10:
23 goes into 170 7 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18568.5217
If we subtract 161 from 170, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
23 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18568.52173
If we take 69 away from 90, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 210 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18568.521739
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 207 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 30 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18568.5217391
If we subtract 23 from 30, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
70 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18568.52173913
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 69 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Our division results in 18568.52173913 with a remaining 1e-09.
