462642 divided by 87 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 87 in 462642.

Advancing to step 1:
87 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 46 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 46.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 46 leaves us with 46.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 462 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 462 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 27.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 435 from 462 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 276 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 276 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 15.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we take 261 away from 276, we end up with 15.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 154 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 154 1 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 531.0
Subtracting 87 from 154 leaves us with 67.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 67 and continue with: 672 / 87

On to step 6:
672 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 63.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5317.0
Subtracting 609 from 672 leaves us with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
87 can be fit into 630 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5317.7
Subtracting 609 from 630 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 210 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5317.72
Subtracting 174 from 210 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5317.724
If we take 348 away from 360, 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
87 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5317.7241
Deduct 87 from 120 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 87 fits into 330 3 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5317.72413
Subtract 261 from 330 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
690 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 81.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5317.724137
The remainder is 81 after subtracting 609 from 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
810 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5317.7241379
Subtract 783 from 810 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 87 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5317.72413793
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 261 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5317.72413793, and the remainder is 9e-09.
